I did not know that mathematicians had agreed on a set of axioms from
which all known mathematics can be derived. :-) Would you mind
specifying these axioms?
Further, a theorem prover as MetaMath <http://us.metamath.org/> does
not use the Hilbert axioms straight off as written, but a
modification, and does not specify in exact what manners there results
a mathematical difference, if one. Perhaps it is not known. One
problem in the context, is that the metamathematical axioms are often
written as infinite sets of axioms, which in a computer context must
be properly rewritten as substitution axioms. The details here, seems
to be glossed over.
