That's exactly what I said.

That hasn't been my experience. In fact, in standard ODE, you 
can still push ccylinders through boxes because of divisions by 
denormals causing infinities -- my patch was rejected on stylistic 
reasons alone, yet you imply that things that BREAK THE COMPILE for 
a number of users are OK, for stylistic reasons.

In fact, one of the problems I pointed out would break the build 
for ANYONE using dReal==float.

My post was an attempt to make the maintainers realize that 
cleanliness of compile is really important to some members. It 
appears they don't care, and that's the end of the discussion. 
As I said last time: I said my bit, I'm not going to change 
anyone's religion, so I'd appreciate it if you toned down the 
personal attacks.

Cheers,
