Details:

This statement raises an exception:

[[NSNumber numberWithFloat: 2.12] isEqualToValue: [NSNumber numberWithFloat:
2.12]]);

: Uncaught exception NSGenericException, reason: subclass
NSFloatNumber(instance) should override isEqualToValue:

I know it is unreliable to compare float number since 3.0 can be 2.999999,
but it should return NO instead raising exception.
