This was a feature - I complained about it to PJP many years ago - after thinking I was terminally confused. I believe is has been corrected.
I suggest you/we stop trying to support this obselete version of the library. It will only encourage people to keep on (ab-)using it ;-)

VC 6.5 is on the list of platforms officially supported by Boost. Maybe it should be removed. It is hard for me to imagine that anyone still uses it. ------------------- I have uploaded a new version of fpclassify, ver 16, that has been tested on Win / VC 6.5, 7.1 / x86 Mac / GCC 3.3, GCC 4.0 / PowerPC Next a friend of mine will test on Linux / GCC 3.3 and half a dozen different processors. John, once that is done, you could try again. --Johan
