In my experience, libraries which were previously compiled with an EDG compiler (Comeau / Intel) have almost no problems, while libraries developed only with MSVC, CW, or GCC need to be fixed.
We still do test all of Boost with many compilers implementing 2-phase lookup, including metrowerks, intel, and comeau. I'm surprised that you report it's turning up any Boost bugs, especially in iterator adaptors.
Sorry if I was vague, but my sentence above wasn't specifically about Boost libraries. Boost libraries are obviously OK (or mostly OK at least) because of the wide testing, as you say. -- Giovanni Bajo
