Hi Dough,
Coincidentally HP released a field-test (beta) version of the new Tru64 cxx
compiler two days ago. The new compiler is based on EDG 304. Diagnostics from
this front-end made it clear to us that a GCC-specific workaround in one of the
Boost.Python tests should be universal. See the tiny patch below. Clearly this
patch is not super critical since it is only for a test file, but assuming a
time span of 6-12 months before the next Boost release, the problem may upset a
fair number of people testing with new compilers. To eliminate this
possibility, could we still check in the patch?
Thanks!
Ralf
