I take it back. You get bitten by the old "can't remove top-level qualifiers
without partial specialization" bugaboo.

For now, I believe the most conservative answer is to turn on
BOOST_NO_ITERATOR_ADAPTORS when __STL_DEBUG and BOOST_MSVC are defined, but
I'm still a bit worried about the general applicability of iterator_adaptors
to MSVC under these conditions.
