I do not think there is any particular reason why this change is C++23 specific.
The question remains whether the change should be made at all.

If the primary rationale here is to facilitate testing using the Windows header definitions, I suspect the answer is that the Windows definition of NaN is not a C++ constant expression.

@jcranmer-intel's comment (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/88978/files#discussion_r1576817678), supports the interpretation that operations that result in NaN from non-qNaN inputs are not valid in a constant expression.

Other than wanting to use the Windows header definitions for the tests here, is there a reason why this change belongs in this PR?
