[boost] Bug in boost/empty.hpp with variant??

I just tried to use boost::variant with the HEAD version of boost and I 
am getting multiply defined symbols in empty.hpp.  (gcc 3.2 on Linux)

I fixed it by adding "inline" to the two non-template methods (see below):

inline bool operator==(const empty&, const empty&)
{
     return true;
}

inline bool operator<(const empty&, const empty&)
{
     return false;
}

Is this a bug in the code or is there some other way to wrok around it?

Thanks,
Allen
