I ran the regression tests with SP1 yesterday (results @ http://www.boost.org/development/tests/trunk/developer/summary.html, under the RW_WinXP_VC runner). The RTM version has fixed a bunch of TR1 bugs in the feature pack, and also a few other problems (e.g. the conversion/lexical_cast_test test is now passing).

I can report that it has compiled my whole product, including the parts of boost we're using (mainly regex and test) without any problems. People who have installed hotfixes and/or beta SP1 may find this useful as well: http://blogs.gotdotnet.com/heaths/archive/2008/08/11/vs-2008-sp1-beta-mu st-be-removed-prior-to-installing-the-release-of-vs-2008-sp1.aspx -swn
