Not to mention quite a few vc6-bug-specific problems (just about every test fails with this error):
test_exported.cpp ..\..\..\boost/serialization/array.hpp(69) : error C2265: '<Unknown>' : reference to a zero-sized array is illegal
This one *was* there before I came to the code, AFAICT, though.
vc6 gives the same error for this:
template <class T, int N> void f(T (&)[N]) { }
Please confirm that this stuff never worked with vc6.
This problem first appeared when Mattias Troyer merged his work on the branch fast_array_serialization to the trunk, on Apr 30th, and it's causing every (or nearly every) file which includes some of Boost.Serialization to crash under MSVC 6.5. I guess the solution is to #ifdef the stuff out for this compiler, but I don't know if this could have unforeseen implications (my hunch is it won't, though, but Mattias us surely in a better position to assess this.)
I know a workaround and will implement it tomorrow. Matthias
