Comment (by linasvepstas@…):

 To be completely clear: the following seems to work for multiple versions
 of boost (1.46, 1.48, 1.49, 1.50) and for multiple OS'es (MacOS, arch
 linux, multiple different ubuntu, RHEL4, and a cluster running old
 CentOS):

 {{{
  #include <boost/foreach.hpp>
  #include <boost/version.hpp>

  namespace boost {

  #if BOOST_VERSION != 104900
  namespace BOOST_FOREACH = foreach;
  #endif

  } // namespace boost

  #define foreach BOOST_FOREACH
 }}}
