[rational] optional over/underflow checking

Sandbox now includes the test driver. All the updates are in the single rational header file, so this is a relatively small update. Rational.h, however, has had small updates before. This update centers on adding an optional over/underflow check, that would generate an exception if the result of an operation could not be represented with full numeric precision. Seeking comments on the update and any steps/requirements needed to get the update accepted for release. BTW, are there any status updates on the unlimited precision numeric class effort? Thanks, Dan Searles

I'm slowly working through the review comments. I think I have most of the changes to the front end interface done (including the much requested mixed precision arithmetic), backend breaking interface changes next (mostly to cpp_int). John.
