Comment (by Tony Reix <tony.reix@…>):

 Replying to [comment:4 johnmaddock]:

 About your seconde proposal (I've removed the previous change (NO "long
 double") and I've added a defined(PPC) at beginning of the #if in
 boost/math/tools/precision.hpp), I still have errors, but much less than
 at first. And, more important, I no more have the tests looping infinitely
 and no core in math library.

 4300 tests (whole Boost) [[BR]]
 83 failures [[BR]]
  (inc. 48 failure in boost/math library) [[BR]]
 Only 7046 failures in the sub-tests (instead of 50,000)

 That seems to be a good start !

 Here are the failing math tests:

 Let me know if you have a recommendation about which one I should look at
 at first.

 Thx ! Tony
