I removed the dependency on cppunit (not hard), adding a missing
#include <vector>, removed spurious semicolons after
BOOST_PROTO_EXTENDS() and BOOST_PROTO_BASIC_EXTENDS(), and after that,
the only problem I saw was this on line 62 of CPUDataNDExpressions.hpp:
proto::function< proto::terminal< CPUDataND_< T > >, index_grammar,
index_grammar, index_grammar, index_grammar, index_grammar >
This requires BOOST_PROTO_MAX_ARITY to be set to 6, whereas by default
it is set to 5. After deleting this line, everything compiles and runs
just fine for me. I'm using gcc-4.3. Much work would be necessary to
make this work with msvc, which has a much harder time with the nested
function types used in callable and object transforms.
