Hi,
This does an illegal dereference in boost\lexical_cast.hpp(1357): if (
Traits::eq(minus,*start) )
#include <boost/lexical_cast.hpp>
#include <boost/range/iterator_range.hpp>
int main()
{
       boost::iterator_range<const char*> v;
       boost::lexical_cast<int>(v);
}
Thanks a lot for this bug report.

I tried this code with 1.42 version (it failed with an assertion),
trunk (sigfault), release/branch(sigfault) and with 1.46
(bad_lexical_cast exception). It is an old bug and if this bug is not
critical for you, I think it can wait till next release (1.49).

I`ll create a ticket with bug description.

Best regards,
Antony Polukhin
