Hi
again me :) This error goes away if you #include <cstdlib> in
boost/numeric/ublas/traits.hpp (see attached patch) , no need to update
boost/boost/numeric/ublas/config.hpp .
I've checked in standard (ISO/IEC 14882:2003, clause 26.5) and it seems
that both headers <cstdlib> and <cmath> are required to have full set of
overloads of std::abs (I asked on comp.std.c++ if it's intended). Anyway
I will send support request to Comeau asking about absence of float
version in <cmath> .
