strategy selection error in the distance function
| Reported by: | Owned by: | Barend Gehrels | |

| Milestone: | Boost 1.48.0 | Component: | geometry |
| Version: | Boost 1.47.0 | Severity: | Problem |

Description
file : \boost\geometry\algorithms\distance.hpp
line : 134
before (bug ?) : return_type const ds = ps_strategy.apply(point, *prev, *it);
after (patched) : return_type const ds = eps_strategy.apply(point, *prev, *it);
from the line 125, 128 and 139 eps_strategy seems the more appropriate.

This was indeed a problem. Actually it was more severe than I first thought. A patch was supplied recently and is applied now. The additional issue was that after that patch the unit test did not run anymore, and that is fixed as well. Sorry that this was delayed.

There is indeed something wrong here. But it is not as simple as changing this line only. Will look at it soon.
