There are quite a few intel-vc8-win-9.1 errors but it seems they are all caused by a single problem shown below. If we can find a workaround for this problem then intel 9.1 + VC8 can be added back to the release platforms.

c_traits.cpp .\boost/xpressive/detail/utility/boyer_moore.hpp(64): error: more than one instance of overloaded function "std::fill_n" matches the argument list: function template "void __cdecl std::fill_n(_OutElem (&)[_Size], _Diff, const _Ty &)" function template "std::_Enable_if<<expression>, void>::_Result __cdecl std::fill_n(_OutIt, _Diff, const _Ty &)" argument types are: (unsigned char [256], int, unsigned char) std::fill_n(this->offsets_, uchar_max + 1, this->length_); ^

I just changed this to: std::fill_n(static_cast<unsigned char *>(this->offsets_), uchar_max + 1, this->length_); That should remove the (bogus) ambiguity. Change committed to HEAD and RC. -- Eric Niebler Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
