Thanks for your bug report.  

It seems to be an architecture dependent problem, I'm not able to
reproduce the NaNs on x86 or x86_64.

Is is possible for you to identify where the NaNs are coming from? e.g
by trapping any division by zero, overflow and invalid operation
exceptions while running under GDB.  The function gsl_ieee_env_setup()
can be used to enable these.
