Actually I think it's irrelevant -- PerformComparisonOperation()
is called only once, and the code before it carefully checks for
any NaNs and takes a different code path in that case (jumping
to the 'unordered' label). So it doesn't matter which function
we use here. I don't particularly object if you think using the
non _quiet one is aesthetically tidier. (The nwfpe code is all
hovering on the edge of total obsolescence anyhow; I certainly
don't have any test cases for it.)
