(j3.2006) Signaling NaN

[Fred J. Tydeman]

Are there any Fortran implementations that support IEEE
Signaling NaNs?

If yes, what is printed for them?  And how does that
differ from what is printed for Quiet NaNs?

The C committee is working on a Technical Report on
adding support for IEEE-754-2008 to C.  One of the
items we are considering is Signaling NaNs.  We would
like to be consistent with any other work already done.
