In order to enable complex compile-time dimensional analysis calculations with no runtime overhead,
Boost.Units relies heavily on the [___boost_mpl] (MPL) and on template metaprogramming techniques, and is, as a consequence,
fairly demanding of compiler compliance to ISO standards. At present, it has been successfully
compiled and tested on the following compilers/platforms :

# g++ 4.0.1 on Mac OSX 10.4
# Intel CC 9.1, 10.0, and 10.1 on Mac OSX 10.4
# g++ 3.4.4, 4.2.3, and 4.3.0 on Windows XP
# Microsoft Visual C++ 7.1, 8.0, and 9.0 on Windows XP
# Comeau 4.3.10.1 beta2 on Windows XP
# Metrowerks CodeWarrior 9.2 on Windows XP.
# Sun CC 5.9 on Solaris and Linux

The following compilers/platforms are known *not* to work :

# g++ 3.3.x
# Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 on Windows XP
# Microsoft Visual C++ 7.0 on Windows XP
# Metrowerks CodeWarrior 8.0 on Windows XP.
# All versions of Borland.
