Ah, but here's the genius of the source-tracking feature! You could turn on a special "track source on NaNs" feature, which squirrels away, say, a complete stack record (or something less perhaps, depending on what you ask for), and then every NaN generated now gets tagged with a *very* nice handle for debugging. Of course the implementation of such a feature would be very slow, but that's ok, the point is for debugging. Thomas
