Test3 exercise the whole spectrum of sparse vector and matrix types with a 
variety of BLAS operations. These tests are by far the most demanding on the 
compiler. Unless

The the code the regression test use is take from the HEAD of Boost CVS. This 
code has been developed a great deal since Boost-1.31
The aim at the moment is to get maximum compiler compatibility. Bar an  
incorrect commit over the weekend and the recent noncopyable problems this is 
progressing well.

I have cross posted this to the ublas-dev mailing list. This is the best place 
for uBLAS specific discussion as there are many active contributers. In 
particular you will find many people who also use Visual age C++ on large 
systems.
