I was considering whether "const void *p" should instead be a "const float *p" (in the function prototypes), but maybe not - a reversed float cannot be considered a float anymore, due to the NaN problems you describe below. OTOH, that leaves us with a few float pointers in the callers to these functions, which should perhaps be converted to void* too, but then you can't index them... So hey, it fixes a bug, and I assume you have run the relevant tests and they succeeded. So while it's slightly inconsistent to mix float* and void*, this one is acked too.
