Since before Christmas I haven't been able to compile the cvs serialization xml files. It looks like something in spirit. Wave also fails to compile with the same errors. I'm a bit surprised I haven't seen this mentioned on the boost lists, though I see there are many failures in the boost regression notifications. % gcc -v Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.2/specs Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --disable-checking --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --host=i386-redhat-linux Thread model: posix gcc version 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5) % bjam --with-serialization Building Boost.Regex with the optional Unicode/ICU support disabled.
