[Pyrex] special floats generate incorrect C code when used as compile-time constants

Does it also provide a way of testing whether a value
is an inf or nan?

I tried this on MacOSX using 2.3:

 >>> x = float('nan')
 >>> y = float('nan')
 >>> x == y
True

But isn't that wrong? Aren't nans supposed to compare
unequal to anything else, including themselves? What
does 2.6 do here?
