5776	"program_options should understand ""inf"" and ""nan"""	Rhys Ulerich <rhys.ulerich@…>	Vladimir Prus	"program_options does not accept NaN or Inf as valid double input.  This problem seems like it will be fixed automatically when #5689 arrives in 1.48.  I am setting the milestone accordingly.

Recreate: the following sequence modifies the ""Getting Started""
first.cpp to accept double input:
{{{
   cp $BOOST_SOURCE/libs/program_options/example/first.cpp .
   perl -pi -e 's/<int>/<double>/;' first.cpp
   LDFLAGS=""-lboost_program_options"" make first # ...or whatever
}}}
The modified example indeed barfs on NaN or Inf input:
{{{
   $ ./first --compression=5.5
   Compression level was set to 5.5.

   $ ./first --compression=Inf
   error: in option 'compression': invalid option value 'Inf'

   $ ./first --compression=NaN
   error: in option 'compression': invalid option value 'NaN'
