Does posix say anything about the sign in NaNs ?

Hello;

I got the attached patch from OpenBSD.

It says:
____
Show the sign for NaN as per POSIX; from Elliott Hughes.
ok martynas@, millert@, doug@
____

I can't find a reference in POSIX documentation to support it though.

Anyone has a reason why we shouldn't adopt it, or a reference I can quote
on the commit log?

Regards,

Pedro.

ps. Merry Christmas to everyone !!
