Even from my light boost.typeof experience, i know that this problem with MS precompiled headers is a show-stopper for comfortable boost.typeof usage. This is why I am actively vote for this fix.

FWIW, I don't think we need this for typeof. All we need is to define some templates in, for example, <unnamed>::boost_typeof, and then refer to

Hmmm... That's about what I was talking about.
Figuring that "boost_typeof" (other than "_mpl") is a name that's pretty unlikely to collide with user code, you probably won't need a configuration macro for its name.
No leading "::" is needed.
And (so joking doesn't obscure the message of my previous post) there is no "::" in the code! I used "::" simply to denote the namespace lives in the root namespace :-)...
So, we seem to be in total agreement :-)
My only concern was that this violates the Boost naming convention, but I think getting things to work is more important. Besides, you pointed to a precedent. I also know another one -- bind placeholders.
I will not be available next week, but after that, unless somebody suggests a better alternative, I will implement this (I hope CVS is stable at that point, and we are not yet in the code freeze).
