[boost] [multiprecision review] EOF not declared, and noexcept errors

Dear All,

I'm trying to do some simple tests with the proposed 
Boost.Multiprecision, but anything that includes e.g. 
boost/multiprecision/cpp_int.hpp gives errors like this:

/big_number/boost/multiprecision/mp_number.hpp:1730:11: error: ‘EOF’ 
was not declared in this scope
/big_number/boost/multiprecision/rational_adapter.hpp:208:45: error: 
expected ‘;’ at end of member declaration
/big_number/boost/multiprecision/rational_adapter.hpp:208:47: error: 
‘noexcept’ does not name a type

My guess is that the EOF error may be a missing include, while the 
latter two errors may be something that's missing in the relatively old 
Boost installation on this test machine.  Can anyone suggest what I 
need to do?

Regards,  Phil.
