I've put a zip containing some 2D/3D geometry primitives in the Math - Geometry
directory:

No docs or tests. Developed using VC7.1.  Needs Boost.Typeof which is only
available in CVS.  The two rc_transform.hpp headers currently also have
dependencies on an external angle type so wont compile (unless you download the
original pqs http://tinyurl.com/s7hu6) , however I am working to make a set of
angle types available as part of my proposed Boost Pqs library:

The geometry primitives can also use pqs t1_quantity types as their value_types.
The (two_d / three_d) vects can also be used for representing three dimensional
vector quantities too of course.
