If I'm not mistaken, this is a vc6/7 regression that crept in shortly
before the release, for reasons we're unable to pin down.

The current CVS contains fixes for the problem.  I suggest getting
the RC_1_31_0 branch with:

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous_at_[hidden]:/cvsroot/boost co -rRC_1_31_0 boost

since that should be as close as possible to the latest release.
