The failure I saw occured on msvc-10.0 as well as gcc-4.6.0 so you should revisit your tests so that they catch such a failure.
It doesn't happen with my vc10 installation. When you look at your vc10 version, what does it say? Mine is Version 9.0.30729.1. I didn't test on gcc-4.6.0 as cygwin seems only to have up to 4.3.4. Otherwise, I'm not sure what else I could have done to foresee these issues. My tests really did build, and really did pass. Honest ;).
Daniel James' update fixed the problem but tests should show the problem in the first place.
I checked the trunk regression tests this morning and began to work through the issues I found. Your tone seems to suggest that I have done something incorrectly; however, I'm not sure what more I could have done. I don't have access to every compiler boost supports. I assumed that the general way of collaborating on Boost is to test on what compilers are available and then consult the regression tests at http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/summary.html to address those issues that exist on compilers that one does not have available. I'm not sure development on this scale could work any other way. Regards, Brandon
