Apologies for resurrecting this old thread, but I finally got around to 
looking into this, and couldn't reproduce the issue, I tried both:

bcp bimap destination

and all the bimap tests built OK for me, so then I tried:

bcp boost/bimap.hpp destination

and a trivial #include <boost/bimap.hpp> program also compiled fine.

This is all with current Trunk BTW.

So... unless there's some platform/compiler specific thing going on I'm 
stuck.

Regards, John.
