[pkg-boost-devel] Bug#444359: libboost-test-dev: unusable with gcc-4.3

[Jiří Paleček]

Package: libboost-test-dev
Version: 1.34.1-2
Severity: important
File: /usr/include/boost/test/test_tools.hpp

Hello,

the file test_tools.hpp uses the symbol CHAR_BIT, however, does not  
include the definition for it. This means you cannot use it with gcc-4.3,  
because gcc-4.3 will not define it (like gcc-4.2) (it worked in older gcc  
because gcc used the macro in other headers, which pulled the definition  
in).

To fix this, the file should #include <climits>.

Regards
     Jiri Palecek
