[Bug preprocessor/15642] New: NAN Is Not a Constant Because __APPLE_CC__ is Not Defined (OK in Apple 3.3.0)

["flash at pobox dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

The following code give "error: initializer element is not constant" with gcc 3.4.0 in C99 mode on 
OSX 10.3.3.  It compiled as expected with gcc 3.3 from Apple's X-Code 1.2.  Section 7.12[5] of the C99 
spec says that NAN expands to a constant expression.

#include <math.h>
	const volatile static float arg2_float_23 = NAN;

    Similar results when I hard-coded the path to the 3.4.0 version of math.h; session below, and I'll 
attach the preprocessed file, which did indeed fail to define NAN as a constant.
    The problem seems to be that __APPLE_CC__ is no longer defined in 3.4.0 (though __APPLE__ still is); 
but the math.h with 3.4.0 (built from the gnu sources) still depends on it:

#if defined(__APPLE_CC__) && (__APPLE_CC__ >= 1345)
#define NAN		__builtin_nanf("0x7fc00000") /* Constant expression, can be used as initializer. */
#else
#define NAN		__nan( )
#endif

    Adding "-D__APPLE_CC__=1642" to the command line worked around the problem.

    Here are the diffs between the predefined macros in the two versions; the other ones look fairly 
innocuous, except perhaps for __GXX_ABI_VERSION, which I don't understand.
