Sorry for the late reply; I had a busy week. I will start looking into this. I also want to do some research on the various problems people may be having with the containers, notably the various "performance" tests where GSL containers and/or linear algebra come out badly. It's been a while since I've seen these sorts of comparisons, but they are out there somewhere. -- G. Jungman
