If you change it[3] = it[5]; with it[3] = 55; it will work. The problem is
your iterator_facade::operator[] returns a
boost::detail::operator_brackets_proxy which, I'm not sure why, does not
seem to implement operator=(operator_brackets_proxy const &). There may be a
good reason for this but perhaps the author(s) of the library can answer
that.
