I will *not* do that.
Actually, I'm *not* at all interested in floating point arithmetic.
I wrote the floating point classification functions
for one reason only: I needed them.

The native fp classification functions on MSVC 7.1 do not handle
single precision floating point numbers correctly,
so I had to put together my own.
