Hugs.RealFloat

Description

Hugs (September 2006) has buggy definitions for isNaN and isInfinite on Float and Double. If this module is run through CPP with the macro __HUGS__ set to a value no larger than 200609, then correct definitions are used. Otherwise the Prelude definitions are used (which should be correct for other compilers). For example, run Hugs with

hugs -F'cpp -P -D__HUGS__=200609' Hugs/RealFloat.hs

N.B. The corrected definitions have only been tested to work for Float and Double. These definitions should probably not be used for other RealFloat types.
