"date.c", line 372: syntax error before or at: double
cc: acomp failed for date.c
gmake: *** [date.o] Error 2

The Sun C compiler doesn't like the definition of NAN in
src/include/port/solaris_i386.h:
#define NAN (*(__const double *) __nan)

Is there a danger of removing this line? Should it be changed to
something else?
