As I said, I gave up at some point. So, no - sorry.

Please understand that I'm fully aware of the open source/volunteer character of this project (and I do very much appreciate your effort). I'm not trying to criticize but just to report problems I'm seeing. Regards Hartmut --------------- http://boost-spirit.com http://stellar.cct.lsu.edu
