Re: [boost] Function.hpp and Internal Compiler Error with MSVC and STLport

Sofus,
        I've finally looked into this and it is a Visual C++-specific bug. I was not 
able to fix the problem using any of the usual methods (extra typedefs, 
dropping "template" and/or "typename" keywords, etc.), so unfortunately the 
only recourse is to #define BOOST_NO_STD_ALLOCATOR. I've verified that this 
works correctly with MSVC 6.0sp5 with STLport 4.0.
