Can anyone confirm this?
If yes, bug in clang, dmd or phobos?

Note that the dmd testsuite passes for me.

Clang behaves differently, but it's probably not a bug.

----
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>

int main()
{
long double foo = NAN;
double a = foo;
double b = NAN;
double c = fabs(NAN);
printf("%Lf %d\n", foo, (int)signbit(foo));
printf("%f %d\n", a, (int)signbit(a));
printf("%f %d\n", b, (int)signbit(b));
printf("%f %d\n", c, (int)signbit(c));
}

double a = foo; // seems like "FSTP m64fp" doesn't preserve the sign bit

We need to fix the code in PortInitializer::PortInitializer() which
relies on
sign preserving of NaN size conversions.

I thought Clang would be compatible with GCC.


I think it's undefined behavior to rely on the exact representation of NaN.

From what I've seen whether "a" ends up with a sign or not depends on processor internal state and is not specified by Intel, clang emits different code thus the difference.
