Basically true, but if you care about ease of installation
and compatibility with TR1 (and hence compatibility with the
next C++ Standard) see our detailed comparison of our stuff
against Boost and gcc (libstdc++) at:

I'm interested in the 11 failing tests for <memory> (which I assume are
testing boost::shared_ptr). Can you please describe the failures?

g++'s <tr1/memory> passing 10 of them is also a bit puzzling. :-)


I didn't run the tests, John Benito did for us. But the tests are
just our Quick Proofer, which we ship with our source code. (We've
made the source + tests available to Beman Dawes at no cost. You
might talk to him.)
