Hi,
is supposed to do that?
Yes. I'm sure the report is just out-of-date.
OK
But why are you testing for the exact version 0x564? I'm sure 5.5.1 is also broken.
But it isn't. 5.6.4 shipped with a different std library (w.r.t 5.5.1) and there lies the problem (numeric_limits<> not having compile time constants) In fact, I developed the entire library using 5.5.1, so I'm pretty sure it works (and if the current version doesn't becasue of some recent change is definitely fixable). I have not tried bjam with my local 5.5.1 version to check it passes ALL of the tests (since bcc5.5.1 is not in the satus report anyway), but I'm sure this compiler doesn't need the old cast code.
