------ Comment on this from Eric Niebler:

it's a compiler bug, algorithm/string.hpp causes iterator_range to be declared in boost::algorithm namespace, and range/iterator_range.hpp causes a different iterator_range to be defined in the boost namespace. That's fine, but your compiler doesn't seem to like it. The fix is probably to make the string algorithms use boost::iterator_range instead of defining its own version.

------

This is a known problem with this release. It is a plan to fix string_algo to use Boost.Range instead of its internal version Before the release, the Boost.Range was not stable enough. It has changed later on, but then I didn't want the make big changes just before the release. If I would know that it would take so long to get the release the change would have be there long time ago. Regards, Pavol
