Yes. I've already made that change + the iterator change in the CVS
Repository. See
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/boost/boost/array.hpp?cvsroot=boost

The root of the reverse_iterator problem isn't with the MSVC library, it is
that the compiler doesn't support partial specialization. Thus other
libraries such as STLport which use that compiler also need the fix
applied. That's why I suggested BOOST_NO_TEMPLATE_PARTIAL_SPECIALIZATION
rather than BOOST_MSVC_STD_ITERATOR.

Yes, but the last three MSVC and last two STLport arguments have
defaults. That's why I just gave two arguments.

Yes, the CVS version works with BCC 5.4, 5.5, Metrowerks 5.3, MSVC 6.0 SP3
(Microsoft library) and MSVC 6.0 SP3 (STLport 3.2.1 library).
