I was under the impression I *had* given a final decision - we should
reject Inf and NaN as invalid values.
The ticket hasn't been closed because we're not focussing on bug fixes
at the moment - we're still in feature development. Once the feature
freeze happens, we'll move onto fixing bugs.
On an administrative matter - if you want to improve the chances that
this ticket will be closed in the 1.2 bug fixing period, then you
should flag it for the 1.2 milestone.

I changed the version to 1.2alpha.
Thanks,
