The new Math statistical distributions and special functions code currently
fails with Sun's compiler
http://beta.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/output/Sandia-sun-boost-bin-v2-libs-math-test-test_beta-test-sun-5-9-debug.html
with error messages such as:

"../boost/math/concepts/real_concept.hpp", line 333: Error: Could not find a
match for boost::math::tools::epsilon<boost::math::tools::T>().
"../boost/math/special_functions/detail/unchecked_factorial.hpp", line 268:
Error: Could not find a match for
boost::math::unchecked_factorial<boost::math::RT>(unsigned).
"../boost/math/special_functions/detail/unchecked_factorial.hpp", line 269:
Error: Could not find a match for
boost::math::unchecked_factorial<boost::math::RT>(unsigned) needed in
boost::math::unchecked_factorial<boost::math::RT>(unsigned).

The gcc results on that platform are pretty good, so it seems a shame not to
support Sun as well, anyone have ideas?

Thanks, John Maddock.
