3. Your <limits> header is a bit funny. numeric_limits<T>::quiet_NaN() returns a NaN with the signbit set. This triggered the assertion.
You need to allow for the possibility that the sign bit is set anyway.
I will.
(Does it matter? Maybe. According to C99, positive NaN should be written to text files as "nan" or "+nan" and negative NaN as "-nan". And this will probably be part of C++0x as well.)
C++ doesn't guarentee any particular format for printing NaN's or Infinities :-(
C99 does. And C99 will become part of C++0X, right? --Johan
