Hi Andrew,

Thank you for teaching me.
I made the patch that returns NaN. Could you please sponsor it?

In this case I think it is better to fix k_standard.c itself rather than 
ignoring the warning. However, I was able to learn there are some good 
ways to suppress warnings. So I'd like to thank Ioi and Yasumasa.

Thanks,
Koichi
