Milestone:  To Be Determined   |   Component:  numeric
  Version:  Boost 1.45.0       |    Severity:  Problem

-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
 As per [lib.c.math] paragraphs 5 and 6, there are float and long double
 overloads for fabs():

 {{{
   float fabs (float);
   long double fabs (long double);
 }}}

 libstdc++ apparently does not have the required overloads and is seems
   libs/numeric/ublas/test/test_assignment.cpp
 relies on this.

 Patch provided.
