[boost] Bug of new boost::random

Dear Jens, dear Boosters,

Some of the new distributions in the Boost random library no longer 
work with floating point based generators. Could Jens or somebody fix 
that? I myself am reluctant to provide a fix.

Here is a test program that fails to compile now:

#include <boost/random.hpp>

int main()
{
   boost::lagged_fibonacci607 rng;
   boost::uniform_int<> int_rng(0,3);
   int x = int_rng(rng);
}

Best regards,

Matthias
