Pull request overview

Fixes a --nan-check false positive by aligning division NaN detection with IEEE 754 rules (finite/∞ is ±0, only ∞/∞ yields NaN), and adds regressions around infinity arithmetic.

Changes:

  • Update NaN-check logic for division to flag only 0/0 and inf/inf.
  • Extend SMT2 parser support with fp.isNegative / fp.isPositive.
  • Add/adjust regression tests and math-library stubs for __isfinite*.
