[issue22590] math.copysign buggy with nan under Windows

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

Also, the fact that we support float('nan') and float('-nan') as producing different bit patterns means we should perhaps produce the right sign bit for each (it seems that's the problem here).

>>> import struct
>>> struct.pack("d", float("nan"))
'\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\xf8\xff'
>>> struct.pack("d", float("-nan"))
'\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\xf8\x7f'
