Description:
------------
Comparison of the float NAN value to any other value is supposed to return false - as the docs of
the float type says.

In PHP 5.4 to 5.6 the result is false, as expected.

In PHP 7.0, the comparison returns true.

Reproduced on Windows 7 (64bit) as well as at https://3v4l.org/GkqZZ

Test script:
---------------
<?php
var_dump(NAN < 1.0);

Expected result:
----------------
bool(false)

Actual result:
--------------
bool(true)
