I though that Boost.Python users might be interested
Thanks for the heads-up!
Dave, is there a boost policy about these sorts of things? I mean: should we always use the latest patch level of each compiler? In this case, for instance, if you test things with VC6 SP5 and they work you may be reasonably sure they also work with SP6. But if you test with SP6... you could be taking advantage of new fixes, and users who still use SP5 would be forced to update their compiler. For private uses that's not a problem, but in a more complex (commercial) environment it could be impossible. Genny.
