Not to discover capabilities, it is to discover namespaces. At the time
of GCC 3.4, the developers decided that the inverse hyperbolic functions
should not be in the std namespace anymore (they were before). It is the
reason why the GCC version is tested.

You still haven't say how I can detect that it's the mingw runtime that
will be used. I need to know a preprocessor test so that i can adapt the
interval library to this runtime.
