Long ago, yes, years ago, I proposed normalizing the variety of ways of 
defining (in the preprocessor) version numbers and reflecting the 
predefined version information. As can be seen here 
<http://www.crystalclearsoftware.com/cgi-bin/boost_wiki/wiki.pl?BoostConfig>.

Time traveling to the present I have finally put the finishing touches 
on the end result of this concept as a "Predef" library. It's now grown 
to include detection of more types of predefs, almost complete 
documentation with a reference generated directly from the source, and 
some utilities on adding new predefs.

I'm still working on cross-platform testing. But I thought now would be 
a good time to ask for comments and for people to try it out.

The lib is in the sandbox at 
<http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/predef>. And the docs can be rad 
directly from 
<http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/predef/libs/predef/doc/html/index.html>.

Enjoy.
