 This is not quite the latest, but I've tested this with Boost 1.62 under
64 bit Debian system with g++ 6.3 and the results are:

        % g++ -Wall -std=c++11 boost_num_cast.cpp && ./a.out
        Integer converted from NaN = -2147483648
        That worked, so this should too...

 Yes, I can confirm this as well, i.e. I get exactly the same output when
using Boost 1.33.1 headers on the same system.
