There are some CodeWarrior failures with octonions and quaternions (with cw-9_4 for Windows). Have you had a chance to fix these yet?

Both cw-9_4 for Windows and Intel 8.1 define symbols which trip a supplied workaround for MSVC deficiencies about "abs" & co.: #if BOOST_WORKAROUND(BOOST_MSVC, < 1300) || (defined(_MSC_EXTENSIONS) && BOOST_MSVC < 1310)) Both, however, seem to work around the deficiency, but in different ways. I do not have access to any of these platforms, so there is not much I can do. I will try to see if more specific symbols are defined for these platforms and exclude them from the workaround in place, but any suggestion is welcome. The gcc 4.0 & Sun situation is more problematic: the standard library that ships with them is broken with respect to "long double" (in these cases, "float", "double" and "long double" really are three distinct things, and some special functions have not been coded correctly for the highest precision one). I can either disable "long double" support for them, relax conditions to a point where "long double" is no better than "double" or mark these as expected failures. I am equally unhappy with each of these. What would a preferred solution be? Merci Hubert Holin
