I'm willing to do that and let you know what I find. But how do I run the regression tests?
It sounds like you have a copy of the Sandbox SVN already, so cd into sandbox/math_toolkit/libs/math/test then set the environment variable BOOST to point to the root directory of Boost-1.34 (depending how much of the sandbox you checked out, you may need to set BOOST_ROOT as well or instead). Then: bjam mytoolset 2>&1 | tee toolkit.log where "mytoolkit" is the name of the bjam toolset for that compiler/platform. Not sure if you need to use "darwin" or "gcc" on that platform these days: try "darwin" first and then fall back to gcc if that doesn't work anymore. Then step back for a long wait :-) The test log will likely be quite large, so I suggest we take this off-list rather than clog up everyones inboxes with it ;-) Many thanks, John Maddock.
