Description:
------------
Tested on Gentoo, CentOS, OSX. 

This is possibly NOT related to the Windows NaN bug, as Windows is NOT 
affected by this issue. 

However, please test if any fix doesn't cause regression on Windows.

NaN > NaN, NaN > 0, NaN < 0 return true, while they should return false 
in all cases (any comparison where either side is NaN, should return 
false).

Reproduce code:
---------------
$NaN = sqrt(-1);
var_dump($NaN > $NaN);
var_dump($NaN > 0);
var_dump($NaN < 0); 

Expected result:
----------------
float(NAN)
bool(false)
bool(false)
bool(false)

Actual result:
--------------
float(NAN)
bool(true)
bool(true)
bool(true)

And to add a note:

$NaN >= $NaN
$NaN >= 0
$NaN <= 0

These also return true and must return false.

Sorry for the extra noise, took a harder look and here is the real fix.

This is good fix. The fix affects only following comparisons:
 
 * NaN < [any number]
 * Inf < Inf
 * -Inf < -Inf

They are all ture on my machine, but all should be false.

Sorry, previous post was incollect. chrisstocktonaz's patch fixes my first comparison. I think following patch is better.
