See http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/gnatsweb.pl?cmd=view%20audit-trail&database=gcc&pr=3865 This is a generic GCC 3.2 problem, not a specific SuSE one. GCC 3.2 simply does not include full support. The GCC 3.3 that will come with SuSE Linux 8.2 will, among other things, have this fixed.
I really doubt there are any packages in the distribution that require numeric_limts<> support as gcc 2.95.x was even worse in implementing these.
GNU Scientific Library? I had some problems recently when I tried using numeric limits with GSL IEEE floating point support (SuSE 8.0). In the end, this really wasn't the way to do it. I found this response very helpful. I presume GSL will still be in 8.2, though it's pretty easy to compile from source. -- JDL
