>Description:
Math.sin(1e50) yields 1e50 as a result. Not surprisingly,
the same call yields different results on Sun's java for
different platforms (eg., Linux, Sparc) but at least those
are in the [-1..1] range.
>How-To-Repeat:
public final class IEEETorture {
    static public void main(String args[])
    {
	System.out.println(Math.sin(1e50));
    }
}
