Steven,

A couple of general comments:

1.  I would appreciate having this type of error analysis in boost, so I
encourage development in this area
2.  I would like to have "pluggable" methods of error tracking.  For
example, most of the time I want partial derivatives with the
dependencies tracked, but sometimes I want to know the absolute error of
a calculation.
3.  I've used the units library quite a bit since it was accepted and
made my own class for handling errors, but a nice integration of these
two ideas would be nice to see in boost too.
