The C++ committee accepted what is essentially Boost.System for C++0x. See http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2007/n2241.html for the final proposal.
That proposal is now reflected in the working paper for the new standard. See http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2007/n2284.pdf
The committee made some minor last minute changes. Those changes are not yet reflected in Boost.System. The plan is to bring Boost.System into compliance with the standard sometime in the next month or so.
Nice - but I don't know why posix errors are enumerated now.
The LWG wanted them to be usable as constants.
Maybe some posix errors are missing (I'm not sure).
Please do an independent check. I have missed something. The POSIX folks suggested adding a couple of new errors POSIX is in process of adding, by the way. Thanks, --Beman
