I don't know if the Linux results are up to date, but it appears that we have still taken a step backward with lexical cast on gcc 2.95.3. This is causing a large number date_time tests which compiled and executed correctly with the 1.29 release to fail. Without actually looking at the source it would be my guess that this is related to the fact that the 2.95.3 standard library only supported old iostreams and that somehow the lexical_cast work around got lost in the changes. This is supported by the fact that the same tests work fine with STLPort. It would be nice if this workaround could be restored before the release even if results in the 2.95.3 version having the 'string' bug. I've attached the details for reference...
