Sorry for posting several times -
it seems that previous trials did not work.

I tried to compile the file under Linux, GCC 2.95:

In file included from bigbitint_test.cpp:16:
../../../boost/math/bigbitint.hpp:13: ios: Datei oder Verzeichnis 
nicht gefunden
../../../boost/math/bigbitint.hpp:14: istream: Datei oder Verzeichnis 
nicht gefunden
../../../boost/math/bigbitint.hpp:15: ostream: Datei oder Verzeichnis 
nicht gefunden

(In English: "File or folder not found")

and under NT / VC++ 6.0:

c:\temp\bignum\boost\math\bigbitint.hpp(841) : error C2258: illegal 
pure syntax, must be '= 0'
c:\temp\bignum\boost\math\bigbitint.hpp(841) : error C2252: 
'is_specialized' : pure specifier can only be specified for functions
c:\temp\bignum\boost\math\bigbitint.hpp(846) : error C2252: 'digits'
: 
pure specifier can only be specified for functions
...

As I understand,
your program is right and the compilers are wrong.
Nevertheless,
would it be possible for you to convert the
code so that it can be compiled using these compilers?

Thanke you
