A few months ago there was some discussion about an arbitrary magnitude integer library. I have now implemented such a library, which is located at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/boost/files/big_integer/.
Compiling the code generate hundreds of failures because of two-stage name lookup. You tested it under MSVC 71 and GCC 3.2 which both fail to implement lookup rules correctly. I suggest you try again with GCC 3.4.0 (a pre-release binary package should be available now) or EDG-based compilers. -- Giovanni Bajo
