Ah, but here's the genius of the source-tracking feature!
You could turn on a special "track source on NaNs" feature, which
squirrels away, say, a complete stack record (or something less
perhaps, depending on what you ask for), and then every NaN generated
now gets tagged with a *very* nice handle for debugging.
Of course the implementation of such a feature would be very slow, but
that's ok, the point is for debugging.
