added NAN headers to source/blender/blenkernel/intern/sound.c and
source/blender/editors/sculpt_paint/paint_utils.c since these both go
back to original blender open-sourcing.

This ones for Brecht I think (svn logs back to orange merge)
source/blender/editors/uvedit/uvedit_parametrizer.c

This ones for Daniel Dunbar (aka Zr)
source/blender/blenkernel/intern/CCGSubSurf.c

Re:  source/gameengine/GamePlayer/xembed/npunix.c
This isnt built with blender, but we should probably get the header
fixed anyway... or alternately we could remove
source/gameengine/GamePlayer/xembed dir, its not maintained for ages.
