I have reproduced the failures on Intel 10.1.

The only thing that was wrong was the tests.
After I replaced

   -std::numeric_limits<ValType>::quiet_NaN()
   -std::numeric_limits<ValType>::signaling_NaN()

by

   changesign(std::numeric_limits<ValType>::signaling_NaN())
   changesign(std::numeric_limits<ValType>::quiet_NaN())

everywhere in the tests, then all tests passed.

Could you check if that does the trick on VC8 as well?
