This section contains some information about how various compilers work with
this library. It is not comprehensive and updated experiences are always welcome.
Some effort has been made to suppress unhelpful warnings but it is difficult
to achieve this on all systems.

Long double support has been disabled because the native long double
C standard library functions really only forward to the double versions.
This can result in unpredictable behaviour when using the long double
overloads: for example <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">sqrtl</span></code>
applied to a finite value, can result in an infinite result.

Some functions still fail to compile, there are no known workarounds

Long double support has been disabled with these compiler releases
because calling the standard library long double math functions can
result in a segfault. The issue is Linux distribution and glibc version
specific and is Intel bug report #409291. Fully up to date releases
of Intel 9.1 (post version l_cc_c_9.1.046) shouldn't have this problem.
If you need long double support with this compiler, then comment
out the define of BOOST_MATH_NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH_FUNCTIONS at line
55 of <a href="../../../../../boost/math/tools/config.hpp" target="_top">boost/math/tools/config.hpp</a>.

Long double support has been disabled on this platform due to the
rather strange nature of Darwin's 106-bit long double implementation.
It should be possible to make this work if someone is prepared to
offer assistance.

the test code, not fpclassify itself. The IBM compiler group are

If your compiler or platform is not listed above, please try running the regression

<pre class="programlisting"><span class="identifier">bjam</span> <span class="identifier">mytoolset</span>
</pre>
<p>
where "mytoolset" is the name of the <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/html/bbv2.html" target="_top">Boost.Build</a>
toolset used for your compiler. The chances are that <span class="bold"><strong>many
of the accuracy tests will fail at this stage</strong></span> - don't panic - the
default acceptable error tolerances are quite tight, especially for long double
types with an extended exponent range (these cause more extreme test cases
to be executed for some functions). You will need to cast an eye over the output
from the failing tests and make a judgement as to whether the error rates are
acceptable or not.
