      Well, actually, I am held up at the moment by what seems to be 
internal Boost.Test problems.

      I checked in a few days ago some modifications to the special 
functions tests, which take into account the modifications to the 
BOOST_CHECK_PREDICATE macro, but compilations still fails (Xcode 1.5):

      Until this is sorted out, I will not update quaternions and 
octonions.
