I think this might be a bug in the compiler.
I thought it was intentional.
See:
void test()
{
  std::string str;
// hey, const sub_range.
  const boost::sub_rangestd::string rng1(str);
// whether or not to allow...?
  boost::sub_rangestd::string rng2 = rng1;
}
I don't know the answer for sure.
Can you assing a const vector<T> to a mutable vector<T>?
Hmm, yes. (though I think it is not the property of range.)
I believed it was your intention, because a trivial assignment fails
like Victor's example under VC++7.1.
I must change the recognition of sub_range.
