Those links were very useful.  In fact, it was thanks to those examples that I 
managed to get my first test equation solver up and running.  It's a shame that 
that sort of info isn't present in boost::ublas's manual.

Yet, they weren't enough for me to get everything working smoothly.  For 
example, if a solve() routine is called on a singular system then boost::ublas 
throws a weird exception that doesn't appear to be documented anywhere, which 
causes my test application to promptly shut down without any warning.  And 
that isn't fun.  At all.

Thanks for the help,
