>I've just tried to compile the boost_python library under Borland BCB 5 
(Update Pack #1) and got the following error (one of many similar):

[C++ Error] classes.cpp(178): E2316 '__strcmp__' is not a member of 'std'

<

It's a bug in borlands headers, the usal fix is to add

#ifdef strcmp
#undef strcmp
#endif

after include <string.h>

The problem occurs only when the "intrinsic inlines" option is turned on -
you may be able to get the code to compile by turning these off.
