Description Henry S. Thompson 2006-11-30 07:40:14 UTC 
"Or if both values are NaN." appears in the 6th para of the definition.  Can't tell whether this is case is meant to be 'true' or 'false'. . .  Perhaps a markup bug?
Comment 1 Ashok Malhotra 2006-12-13 15:39:10 UTC 
On the Dec 12 telcon the WGs agreed to fix this by making the offending sentence
a clause of the previous sentence.  The sentence now reads: "If $i1 and $i2 are both atomic values, they are deep-equal if and only if ($i1 eq $i2) is true, or if both values are NaN."

Closing bug because commenter has not objected to the resolution posted and more than two weeks have passed.
