I recently upgraded to gcc/4.3 and started seeing warnings from gcc-4.3.3 -Wall suggesting parentheses around && within ||.

It would be great if boost/1.38 could repair these by adding a few pairs of parentheses before the final release.

N.B. I did not do an exhaustive compilation of everything in boost with gcc -Wall. The three cases below are the ones that my code base just happens to hit.

Thanks, John Salmon

I've also had a private email about GCC 4.n warnings in Boost.Lambda. I don't see any way to address these in 1.38.0. It is just too late. What I suggest is that someone do a full GCC 4.n regression test run, capture the warnings, and preferably submit a patch to quiet them. --Beman
