7485,build failure with BOOST_MATH_NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH_FUNCTIONS,kab@…,John Maddock,"With boost-1.52 beta1, and possibly earlier, I'm no longer able to build with BOOST_MATH_NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH_FUNCTIONS.  I'm getting errors like that below when defining that variable in $BOOST_ROOT/boost/math/tools/user.hpp.  This works in boost-1.49; I haven't tried to narrow down the introduction of this issue more narrowly than that.  I don't think it matters, but this is with gcc4.5 and gcc4.6.

The promote_args class template in boost/math/tools/promotion.hpp has a static assertion that errors if the result type is long double and BOOST_MATH_NO_LONG_DOUBLE_MATH_FUNCTIONS is defined.
