Thinking about it, there's something about this line that is not so nice: It 
relies on the actual encoding of the float, which may technically be platform 
specific if there's a CPU that implements non-IEEE- 754 floats.

You could try something like this(pseudo code, I removed the *s)

if(in == 0.0)
{
    if(sign(1.0 / in) == positive) return 0x0000;
    else return 0x8000;
}

The idea is that 1.0 / 0.0 returns Inf and 1.0 / -0.0 -Inf. I may be mistaken 
about that though.
