Re: bug report: boost::tokenizer with VC6

The following message was posted last year, but I think I ran across a
similar or related bug today:

Using MSVC6 and Boost 1.29.0, if you #include <boost/tokenizer.hpp>
in your precompiled headers, the following line crashes the compiler
identically to the message below:

boost::tokenizer<>::iterator it;

Simply moving the #include out of the precompiled header avoids the
crash.  If there is a better workaround or fix I would love to hear
it.

Thanks,
Ben
