Comment (by apolukhin):

 Lets start from the beginning:[[BR]]
 1) I`ve tested lexical_cast<double>("-nan") on VC10 and it passed[[BR]]
 2) I`ve tested boost::lexical_cast<string>(sqrt(-1.0));  on VC10 and it
 passed and outputteed "-nan"[[BR]]
 3) There are about 90 tests on nan/inf and they pass:
 [http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/branches/release/libs/conversion/test/lexical_cast_inf_nan_test.cpp

 tests],
 [http://www.boost.org/development/tests/release/developer/conversion.html

 results1],
 [http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/conversion.html

 results2]. And they are passing since boost_1.48[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 I can not reproduce your error, so please can you answer the following
 questions:[[BR]]
 1) Which version of boost are you using exactly? Is it boost_1.47, is it
 boost_1.48?[[BR]]
 2) Which compiler exactly are you using? Is it Visual Studio 2010, is it
 Visual Studio 2003?[[BR]]
 3) Reproduce the error on your compilerand copypaste the code that
 produces error to this ticket.
