//  Revision History
//  02 Sep 13  Remove unneeded forward declarations; tweak private helper
//             function (Daryle Walker)
//  30 Aug 13  Improve exception safety of "assign"; start modernizing I/O code
//             (Daryle Walker)
//  27 Aug 13  Add cross-version constructor template, plus some private helper
//             functions; add constructor to exception class to take custom
//             messages (Daryle Walker)
//  25 Aug 13  Add constexpr qualification wherever possible (Daryle Walker)
//  05 May 12  Reduced use of implicit gcd (Mario Lang)
//  05 Nov 06  Change rational_cast to not depend on division between different
//             types (Daryle Walker)
//  04 Nov 06  Off-load GCD and LCM to Boost.Integer; add some invariant checks;
//             add std::numeric_limits<> requirement to help GCD (Daryle Walker)
//  31 Oct 06  Recoded both operator< to use round-to-negative-infinity
//             divisions; the rational-value version now uses continued fraction
//             expansion to avoid overflows, for bug #798357 (Daryle Walker)
//  20 Oct 06  Fix operator bool_type for CW 8.3 (Joaquín M López Muñoz)
//  18 Oct 06  Use EXPLICIT_TEMPLATE_TYPE helper macros from Boost.Config
//             (Joaquín M López Muñoz)
//  27 Dec 05  Add Boolean conversion operator (Daryle Walker)
//  28 Sep 02  Use _left versions of operators from operators.hpp
//  05 Jul 01  Recode gcd(), avoiding std::swap (Helmut Zeisel)
//  03 Mar 01  Workarounds for Intel C++ 5.0 (David Abrahams)
//  05 Feb 01  Update operator>> to tighten up input syntax
//  05 Feb 01  Final tidy up of gcd code prior to the new release
//  27 Jan 01  Recode abs() without relying on abs(IntType)
//  21 Jan 01  Include Nickolay Mladenov's operator+= algorithm,
//             tidy up a number of areas, use newer features of operators.hpp
//             (reduces space overhead to zero), add operator!,
//             introduce explicit mixed-mode arithmetic operations
//  12 Jan 01  Include fixes to handle a user-defined IntType better
//  19 Nov 00  Throw on divide by zero in operator /= (John (EBo) David)
//  23 Jun 00  Incorporate changes from Mark Rodgers for Borland C++
//  22 Jun 00  Change _MSC_VER to BOOST_MSVC so other compilers are not
//             affected (Beman Dawes)
//   6 Mar 00  Fix operator-= normalization, #include <string> (Jens Maurer)
//  14 Dec 99  Modifications based on comments from the boost list
