In the following example, the date class shows Inf as NA

> as_date(Inf, origin = '1970-01-01')
[1] NA

This is misleading as is.na() reports incorrectly

> is.na(as_date(Inf, origin = '1970-01-01'))
[1] FALSE

The correct approach here would probably to have an Inf (and -Inf)
*displayed* rather than NA.
