Hi, 

Just a follow-up, here is an example (inspired from Barend's blog) that will cause compilation errors (because of abs) when trying to use ttmath:

#include <boost/geometry.hpp>
#include <boost/geometry/geometries/point_xy.hpp>
#include <boost/geometry/geometries/polygon.hpp>
#include <ttmath/ttmath.h>

typedef ttmath::Big<TTMATH_BITS(64), TTMATH_BITS(2048)> ttmath_big; 

template <typename T>  
void test_difference_parcel_precision() 
{
    namespace bg = boost::geometry; 
    typedef bg::model::d2::point_xy<T> point_type; 
    typedef bg::model::polygon<point_type> polygon_type;
    typedef std::vector<boost::uint8_t> byte_vector;

    polygon_type p1, p2; 

    //bg::read_wkt("", p1);
    //bg::read_wkt("", b2);

    bg::correct(p1); 
    bg::correct(p2); 

    std::vector<polygon_type> pieces; 
    bg::difference(p1, p2, pieces); 
}

int main(int, char* []) 
{ 
    test_difference_parcel_precision<float>(); 		// OK
    test_difference_parcel_precision<double>();   	// OK
    test_difference_parcel_precision<ttmath_big >(); 	// fail
    return 0;  
}

Any idea how to fix this ?
Thank you very much,
-V
