Hello,

I was thinking of moving an existing project using SWIG over to
boost::python now that version two is out. When i attempt to compile
boost::python, i get many errors, all relating to 'template with C
linkage'.

A small snippet of the build logs follows:

[mark:libs/python/build] mark% bjam -sTOOLS=gcc -sPYTHON_ROOT=/sw
...found 932 targets...
...updating 54 targets...
gcc-C++-action
../../../libs/python/build/bin/libboost_python.dylib/gcc/debug/runtime-link-dynamic/shared-linkable-true/list.o
In file included from

                 from ../src/list.cpp:6:
/Users/mark/boost_1_29_0/boost/type.hpp:15: template with C linkage

I am running Mac OS X (10.1.5), with the April 2002 Developer tools
installed. Any help would be apreciated.

Thanks,
Mark Rowe
