sqlsmith triggers the following assertion when testing REL_14_STABLE:

I can reproduce it with the following query on a fresh regression
database:
insert into public.brintest_multi (float4col) values (real 'nan');
The branch was at f6162c020c while testing, backtrace below.
I couldn't reproduce this, but it reminds me of this one, which we also had
trouble reproducing.
I can reproduce that just fine - all I had to do was 'make installcheck'
and then connect to the regression db and run the insert.
It seems to be a simple case of confusion in handling of NaN values. We
do sort them correctly (by calling float4_lt), but given two values
arg1 = nan (0x400000)
arg2 = 0.0909090936
then a simple comparison does not give the expected result
(arg1 < arg2)
(arg1 == arg2)
(arg1 > arg2)
all evaluate to false, which is why the assert fails. So I guess the
distance function for float4 (and probably float8 too) need a couple
more lines checking NaN.
