> A solution could be to get rid of using namespace std

We don’t want to do this for the whole project just because of the math headers being screwed up on some platform. There should not be a isnan function both in the global namespace and in namespace std on any platform. Platforms that have that have a broken C++ library and we should find a workaround for that brokenness.

What do you mean by “globally using”? Are you saying no one can ever use “using namespace std”? That does not correspond to my experience.
