This flag should be set when compiling ublas with mipspro, otherwise you get :

cc-1282 CC: ERROR File = 
/home/fft/tk//femtown/../boost/boost/numeric/ublas/traits.hpp, Line = 202
  More than one instance of overloaded function "std::abs" matches the 
argument
          list.

            Function symbol function "std::abs(const std::complex<float> &)"
                      is ambiguous by inheritance.
            Function symbol function
                      "std::abs(const std::complex<long double> &)" is
                      ambiguous by inheritance.
            The argument types are:  (
                      
boost::numeric::ublas::type_traits<double>::const_referen
                      ce).
              return std::abs (t);

But this is a ublas-specific flag although this is not a ublas specific 
problem. And the flag is even not necessary when ublas explicitly states the 
value_type of the std::abs call so I'm not sure what the best way is to patch 
this.
