I think the general consensus is that MSVC 6 is a pretty buggy and out-of-date compiler by current standards. Some Boost libraries work with it, but other don't and adding the code necessary to support this compiler can be difficult or impossible in some cases so it is generally not a high priority. Can you upgrade your compiler? Microsoft offers free versions of their command line tools: http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/express/ -- Caleb Epstein caleb dot epstein at gmail dot com
