changing line 192, 193 of the file rectangle_concept.hpp from
set(lvalue, HORIZONTAL, get(rvalue, HORIZONTAL));
set(lvalue, VERTICAL, get(rvalue, VERTICAL));
to
boost::polygon::set(lvalue, HORIZONTAL, get(rvalue, HORIZONTAL));
boost::polygon::set(lvalue, VERTICAL, get(rvalue, VERTICAL));
solves the problem for me.
I'm no ADL expert (ADL=argument dependent lookup), but I guess the std::pair returned by get for your custom rectangle type pulls in the std namespace, so that the name conflict with std::set occurs. Fully qualifying the calls as I proposed is the correct solution for such ADL problems, IIRC.
