Re: [boost] minor problem in RC_1_28_0

Can anyone confirm this report?

I'd like some volunteers to try building boost Version_1_28_0 with versions
of GCC 2.95.2 and above, if possible. If there is a problem that prevents
it from building with this important compiler, I'd like to fix it before
release.

Thanks,
Dave
