The values of {FLT,DBL}_{MAX,MIN} macros on some systems (older musl
libc, some BSD flavours) are not exactly representable, i.e.
(double)DBL_MAX == DBL_MAX is false
This violates (at least some interpretations of) the C99 standard and
breaks code (e.g. in vf_fps) like
double f = DBL_MAX;
[...]
if (f == DBL_MAX) { // f has not been changed yet
    [....]
}

Martynas is not replying to pings (and we'd have to support current broken
systems anyway), so resending this. I've discovered the same problem in musl
(where it's already fixed), so amended the description to not be bsd-specific.
