Subject: Incorrect result when comparing with NaN
The following SHOULD NOT give a warning about an uninitialized value, however it SHOULD return false, since comparing a NaN to anything (even another NaN) should return false: $ perl -MMath::BigInt -wle 'print Math::BigInt->bnan() == 2' Use of uninitialized value in numeric eq (==) at -e line 1. 1 The same happens with Math::BigFloat.

I agree, will fix in v1.78, but it requires a bit of work.

I just released Math::BigInt 1.80 to CPAN, which fixes this issue in both BigInt and BigFloat. Thank you for your report, and sorry for the long delay.
