Trac Ticket #370 (NaN/Inf Rounding)

Howdy,

My recently-created ticket [1] was closed/rejected due to actually
being a Rakudo bug, but I am still slightly confused.  I recently
wrote many NaN/Inf tests in the Perl 6 test suite, which lead me to
this bug. I was going to write the proper handling in Rakudo's
floor(), but it seemed to me that all Parrot-based languages should
get this.

I wrote tests which pass when using pir_output_is(), but I cannot seem
to get the equivalent test passing with pasm_output_is().

Some questions:

1) Will my passing tests (attached to the ticket) be added to the
Parrot repo or are they being dropped on the floor?
2) How do I write a passing test with this behavior for pasm_output_is() ?
3) If this really isn't a Parrot bug, could someone point me to where
in the Rakudo/Parrot linkage this bug lives?

Cheers,
