[New-bugs-announce] [issue22604] assertion error in complex division

[Antoine Pitrou]

New submission from Antoine Pitrou:

This only happens in debug mode:

>>> complex(0.0, 0.0) / complex(float('nan'), 0.0)
python: Objects/complexobject.c:98: _Py_c_quot: Assertion `b.imag != 0.0' failed.

In release mode, this gives:

>>> complex(0.0, 0.0) / complex(float('nan'), 0.0)
(nan+nanj)

(is it the right result?)
