    I have a large project at work. We use Visual Studio 2005 with SP 1 and
Boost 1.34.0.
    When we use boost::bind in algorithms on collections we very often get
following warning (at level 3):

J:\ThirdParty\boost_1_34_0\boost/bind.hpp(1575) : warning C4180: qualifier
applied to function type has no meaning; ignored

the detailed message is following (just an example extract from compilation
log, sadly I was unable to produce a simple stand-alone example - but if it
is required then I will give some more work into finding one):

    One of my colleagues found a "solution" to this problem. If the modifier
"const" is removed in one of typedef's the no warning are generated. However
we would like a better solution since modifying the library doesn't seem a
good one.
    What to do?
