Re: operators.hpp changes causing GCC 2.95.2-6 to loop

I could reproduce the problem using Cygwin / GCC 2.95.3-5.

Replacing 

struct random_access_iterator_helper

at the very bottom of the file
with the previous version gives a working iterators_test.

The corrected version can be found at

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/boost/files/big_int/dlw_oprs2a.zip 

Clearly this change
makes some additions of Daryle useless,
so maybe Daryle might know a better solution.

I am sorry to say that I am currently on a business trip
and cannot do much testing until Dec 10;
hopefully my change is a good starting point to
completely fix the problem.
