Yes, that's true. That's what I did in my own code of course.

Seeing this, I'm wondering what the boost policy on the use of size_t is.
I'm using it all over the place, and treating it as a built-in. I'm neither
including anything or using a namespace. Is this wrong?

Yeah, it should have been binary. I guess I overshoot a bit with the
simplification of the example :).
You're right though, the problem stays. Luckily, Alexseys work-around works
fine!
