Hi,

I know that gcc 3.4.6 is an old compiler version, but there are a lot of error on the Boost.Thread regression tests. I have created a ticket
#6302 int_adapter<T>::from_special(special_values) is not inlined, so duplicated. to follow this issue

It seems that this function 

template<typename int_type_>
class int_adapter {

  static int_adapter from_special(special_values sv)
  {
    switch (sv) {
    case not_a_date_time: return not_a_number();
    case neg_infin:       return neg_infinity();
    case pos_infin:       return pos_infinity();
    case max_date_time:   return (max)();
    case min_date_time:   return (min)();
    default:              return not_a_number();
    }
  }

is not been inlined with gcc 3.4.6 and so it is duplicated at link time. See link error on regression test

Is this a know error for this compiler version?
