In my local working copy, I added:
# define BOOST_NO_LIMITS_COMPILE_TIME_CONSTANTS
to visualc.hpp.
While that changed the error messages somewhat, random_demo and random_test are still failing.
When you say adding the macro "solves the problem", exactly what tests are fixed? Or did you also make some other fixes too? Did you try other regression tests?
Thanks,
