I have already added a few more constants like this that are used internally
by Boost.Math , but I'm open to suggestions for others.

We aim for at least 50 decimal digits accuracy (often 100), but of course
you only get the maximum precision of your type, usually double.

There still are many 40 decimal digits constants in the vault
http://www.boostpro.com/vault/  Math_constants3.zip

All of these are still constant ;-)
