[Boost-users] numeric/interval overflow & test_float failures

I really don't understand the following math library test
failures (Boost 1.32.0):

1) test_float.output
/Code/boost-os4/libs/numeric/interval/test/test_float.cpp(55): fatal error in "call_test_main": test subset(rIT2, rII) failed

2) overflow.output
/Code/boost-os4/libs/numeric/interval/test/overflow.cpp(22): test in(x, y) failed in function: 'void test_one(typename I::base_type, typename I::base_type) [with I = boost::numeric::interval<float, boost::numeric::interval_lib::policies<boost::numeric::interval_lib::rounded_math<float>, boost::numeric::interval_lib::checking_strict<float> > >]'

/Code/boost-os4/libs/numeric/interval/test/overflow.cpp(22): test in(x, y) failed in function: 'void test_one(typename I::base_type, typename I::base_type) [with I = boost::numeric::interval<long double, boost::numeric::interval_lib::policies<boost::numeric::interval_lib::rounded_math<long double>, boost::numeric::interval_lib::checking_strict<long double> > >]'

I'm using GCC 3.4.4 on AmigaOS PowerPC.

First, what do these errors mean in English?
Second, any ideas what I could do to get them to pass?

Thanks,
