Description Randall Hopper 2000-05-01 22:30:01 UTC 
        When fed a file with Nan/Inf/etc. floats, od -f can core dump.  An
        example is attached.  This is the front 1KB of a float-only file in
        big-endian format which, as one would expect, is more likely to
        trip these odd conditions when read as little-endian.

Fix: Unknown.  Could just need a little SIGFPE handling.
How-To-Repeat: 
	od -f floats.out (see attached datafile)

This appears to be fixed in -current. od -f floats.out 
doesn't dump core and prints (among many other numbers) two NaNs.
