This one is the same except that NaN is no longer around, and two class
variables of class Float have been renamed so that they don't conflict
with the globals.

I believe this is an improvement to Squeak.  Richard has identified
other areas Squeak could be further improved, but I have no plans to
work on them in the near future.

If someone later redefines the Infinity global to something else, the
SUnit test should fail, thus leading people to realize the Float
printString's need to be adjusted.

"Change Set:		floatGlobals-ls
Date:			22 September 2004
Author:			Lex Spoon

Adds globals variables Infinity and NegativeInfinity and sets them to
(Float infinity) and (Float infinity negated).  The Float printString's
are adjusted accordingly, and class Float's same-named class variables
are renamed."
