I just tested 3.3.1 on Windows, and the 7 ublas tests which had been 
failing on 3.3 are now passing. The variant libraries variant_test4 is also 
now passing.

The current plan is to use 3.3.1 as one of our release criteria compilers 
for Boost 1.31.0, so we will try to account for each remaining GCC 3.3.1 
failure.

There are only a handful of GCC failures left. Perhaps we can submit bug 
reports on any that turn out to be GCC problems, and GCC can join the 100% 
pass club with 3.3.2. (I still haven't gotten over Microsoft being the 
first compiler to pass 100%. The world takes some strange twists 
sometimes.)
