You're welcome, thanks! :)

Yes, it's already come up. ;) The real reason is because I don't see
which parts of cpp-netlib can be moved into a compiled lib. Most -- I
should say "all" -- of the algorithms I implement is generic. Maybe
later on I can do that, but only once I see which parts can be moved
to a compiled lib. :D

Also, I aimed to do it header-only, which I think I've largely
succeeded in doing now. Going the other way looks really hard from
where I'm sitting. :D

Thanks for taking a look and I hope this makes sense. :)
