I just built the example code in the bug report on the most up-to-date
system I have (on which uname -a reports: "FreeBSD bogodyn.org
6.3-STABLE FreeBSD 6.3-STABLE #0: Fri Feb 8 21:03:49 MST 2008 ")

The bug persists and the test program goes into an infinite loop upon reaching
the line "std::cout << "isinf() = " << std::isinf(finite) << std::endl;"

I do not track CURRENT (I need stability), and only update 6-STABLE
when necessary (coz I really need stability).  If it's fixed by some update
to 6-STABLE after 8 Feb 2008 then I can update, but since there's a workaround
I'm not likely to do so just to check.
