I have tried, but not in the last 9 months.  HP may be "top-tier" but
if so their compilers have not proven to be of the same caliber as the
rest of the company, at least when it comes to compiling Boost code.
The number and severity of the compiler bugs, and the poor quality of
the error messages, made the job infeasibly hard.
