 > Anderson, thank you very much, especially for the comprehensive tests!

 Ralf, to me this looks like an incorrect bug report.  numeric_cast<T>
 where T is an unsigned type is supposed to throw a bad_numeric_cast if the
 argument is negative.  Did you verify that the supplied tests fail before
 applying the patch?
