Yes.

I've been planning to do that, so thanks for the reminder.

Question: Should boost continue to test with 5.4 and add 5.5 or should we
just drop 5.4 in favor of 5.5? I know little about the Borland product
line so need advice from others.

Thanks,

PS: I will also try to add GCC 2.95.2 with STLport 4.0 to the mix. It
works (and STLport 4.0 even supplies <limits>!) pretty well, but is
irritating to run as the compiler loops on one or two tests and ruins the
run.
