Comment (by pmachata@…):

 There's also one suspicious (unused) typedef in
 libs/math/test/compile_test/test_compile_result.hpp:
 {{{
 template <class T1, class T2>
 inline void check_result_imp(T1, T2)
 {
    typedef int static_assertion[sizeof(T1) == 0xFFFF];
 }
 }}}
 That's kind of reminiscent of static assert, but that should be something
 like [-(sizeof(T1) == 0xFFFF)] instead.  In any case, it's not clear to me
 what the condition itself is meant to test.
