Well, there is https://github.com/boostorg/gil/pull/119 as a potential 
fix still to be merged, and there is 
https://github.com/boostorg/gil/pull/118, which Christian merged into 
`develop`, but which isn't merged into master yet (I'm a bit reluctant, 
as I haven't seen a test case that shows the issue, and more 
importantly, that this PR actually fixes it). Feel free to follow up on 
either of those. I'm on vacation this week, and will be back online next 
week. So if you feel comfortable with either of the two above, please 
move ahead...

For now I'd prefer to keep the develop branch closed so we can use it to 
add and merge bugfixes to master if needed.

Can you do this work in feature branches ? That way we can merge them as 
soon as the release is out.

Thanks,

Stefan
