Here's the result for a gentoo with the same code provided by Masamichi 
Hosoda.

Linux ethereal 4.14.32-std522-amd64 #2 SMP Sat Mar 31 20:05:28 UTC 2018 
x86_64 Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2670 v2 @ 2.50GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

strtof ("nan", NULL) = nan
strtof ("-nan", NULL) = nan
strtod ("nan", NULL) = nan
strtod ("-nan", NULL) = nan
strtold ("nan", NULL) = nan
strtold ("-nan", NULL) = nan

This further supports the reasoning to always return just 'nan'.
