Not yet, there are patches out there which might be LGPL V2+ compatible, but Sun might have broken them with the latest Sun CC. We need to agree on which Sun CC we support anyway. Brian Gladman has some gmpxx.h fixes for MSVC IIRC, so we need to find out if we can get all those patches under one roof without FUBARing existing supported compilers. > Bill.
