To summarize where I think we are:
0) There were some problems with Spirit, which caused Log not to build.
Those have been fixed.

1) There's some problem with "math/special_functions/relative_difference.hpp",
etc.
John thought he had a fix, but then he recanted. :-)

John, what's the status of this?

2) Marcel says that there are two unmerged changes in Boost.Graph

Marcel - what are the status of these patches on develop?
Are they independent of other changes on develop? (i.e, can they be
cherry-picked)?
(They look pretty benign to me)

3) Tom reported errors when building libraries for visual studio: test and
type_erasure.
Raffi says that he has fixes for these.

Raffi - Have these fixes been committed to develop? and what do the tests
look like?

Have I missed anything?

Thanks, everyone
