If struc comparisions compare value by value, and both have Nan
values in one member variable, then the two otherwise completely
identical structs will always compare false even though they are
identical. I think it would be best to have the ability to
compare structs in two ways, one as struct equivalence, which
would be the default method, the other as vale by value
equivalence, which would have to be programmer defined through
overload of == operator.
