Actually I think it's irrelevant -- PerformComparisonOperation() is called only once, and the code before it carefully checks for any NaNs and takes a different code path in that case (jumping to the 'unordered' label). So it doesn't matter which function we use here. I don't particularly object if you think using the non _quiet one is aesthetically tidier. (The nwfpe code is all hovering on the edge of total obsolescence anyhow; I certainly don't have any test cases for it.) -- PMM
