--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
 non_central_chi_squared.hpp fails in 3.2.3 for two reasons

 gcc 3.2.3 does not have the emmintrin.h file.  This can be fixed by
 disabiling SSE2 mode

 a second problem is that igamma_large.hpp has problems with the static
 evaluate_polynomial and returns with an error

 make[1]: *** [eq1products.static-lib] Error 2
 make[1]: Target `all' not remade because of errors.
 1808:    matching function for call to `evaluate_polynomial(long
 double[13], long
 1808:    double)'
 1808: make[2]: *** [../lib-linux.opt/volBEModel.o] Error

 This can be worked around by adding the polynomial size to the
 evaluate_polynomial functions that take the workspaces and figure a final
 value (line 260).  This seems to be a template evaluation bug, since the
 static evaluate_polynomials seem to work fine in calculating the
 evaluating the elements of the workspace.

 This problem was found in 1.39, but the code in trunk is identical
