Just curious as to why boost mixes its #include directives. For instance in boost/any.hpp we have...
#include "boost/config.hpp" #include
...(this is from boost_1_32_0).
Because people don't pay attention. There was an IMHO justified proposal by Beman Dawes to replace the <> form (which was used for historical reasons) with the quoted one but everyone kept arguing instead of fixing their code. That led to the following DR, which is IMHO only wasting committee time: http://www.open-std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG21/docs/cwg_active.html#370 -- Genny.
