I don't believe that's the case for HP-UX 10.20. The define for
HUGE_VALUE is
# define HUGE_VAL 1.7976931348623157e+308
This is the same as DBL_MAX. The manpage says
HUGE_VAL The maximum non-infinity value of a double-precision
floating-point number.
In HP-UX 11.11, the define changed to
#define HUGE_VAL _DINFINITY
and the 11.11 manpage to
HUGE_VAL The maximum value (type double) of a double-precision
floating-point number (IEEE positive INFINITY).
Bah!
