5.0.0 build error : #error Boost.Numeric.Interval: Please specify rounding control mechanism.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install boost-1.42.0 on an i7 imac using macports
2. set BOOST_INCLUDE and BOOST_LIB to /opt/local/include/boost and 
/opt/local/lib
3. run scons

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I would expect the build process to continue

but instead I see the following:

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

vfx-cortex 5.0.0

  System Version:   Mac OS X 10.6.3 (10D573)
  Kernel Version:   Darwin 10.3.0

Please provide any additional information below.

Looks like my boost install doesnt know about my hardware, if it is something 
upstream with 
macports, it would be great if you could help me out so I can get this 
installed at home for some 
tinker time

Closing this as the problem is with boost rather than Cortex. There are several 
workarounds currently documented on the dev list, including bracketing the 
interval include statements like so :

#define __USE_ISOC99
#include "boost/numeric/interval.hpp"
#undef __USE_ISOC99
