Comment (by anonymous):

 That doesn't actually fix things - in fact it causes large numbers of
 failures in our regression tests.  Note that Intel on Linux normally
 handles Boost.Math just fine (and passes all our tests), it's only when
 you use icpc with an unsupported (ie too recent!) gcc version that the
 problems occur.

 I'd much rather we found some other workaround, or else documented a
 workaround, or better got Intel to fix this - after all we really should
 be able to #include <cmath> which is all we're doing here!
