[Boost-users] question about boost::interval

Hi,

I'm a little bit confused about the documentation in 
http://www.boost.org/libs/numeric/interval/doc/rounding.htm, in the 
subsection "Transcendental functions". Does the "Please note" paragraph means 
that the provided classes for transcendal functions (_opp and _std) do not 
guarantee the inclusion property?

From what I understood it says that it depends on the implementation of the 
std::* math functions, that, in most cases, don't obey current rounding mode. 
Am I getting this right? 

In case I am, does anyone knows if I'm safe with gcc std library (perhaps by 
using the -frounding-math switch)?

Thanks!
Marco
