RE: [boost] boost::format problems

I use MSVC6.5 and STLPort.

Well, now it seems to work, except:
1) I don't have wformat defined, and I need to define it myself.  I
can see the bunch of defines that go into deciding this in the
config, and I'm not sure why in the end boost::format concludes
that because there's a using ::x compiler bug
(BOOST_NO_USING_TEMPLATE), that means I can't have 
boost::wformat.

2) When I define wformat as:
  typedef boost::basic_format<wchar_t> wformat;
I get:
c:\boost\boost_cvs\boost\format\format_fwd.hpp(29) : error C2065: 'charT' : undeclared identifier
on this line:
template<class charT, class Traits = BOOST_IO_STD char_traits<charT> > class basic_format;

But these are minor.  I'm not sure why it didn't work before.
