The "in general" bit does not follow the rest of the discussion. The 
following C program get the correct answer. Lua should get the same 
answers!

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main()
{
  double a = atof("NAN");
  double b = atof("NAN");
  printf( "%d %d %d %d %d %d\n",
           a<b, a<=b, a==b, a!=b, a>=b, a>b );     
}

$ ./t
