 I know the function is rather big, but it's just a suggestion.[[BR]]

 It would make is_straight_line_drawing.hpp usable as non-member in header
 (which for the moment is not the case due to intersect()) if the header is
 included in many files - multiple definition problem, as hereunder.

 {{{
 debug/testB.o: boost/graph/is_straight_line_drawing.hpp:44: multiple
 definition of `boost::intersects(double, double, double, double, double,
 double, double, double, double)'
 debug/testA.o: boost/graph/is_straight_line_drawing.hpp:44: first defined
 here
 }}}

 Notice that for other functions in is_straight_line_drawing.hpp (and
 elsewhere in boost::graph), this is not an issue due to them being
 templated.
