Just like you do now. Am I missing something? (With "that" I meant
"the library"). In stdlib/dinkumware.hpp there's, for instance:

#if defined(_CPPLIB_VER) && (_CPPLIB_VER >= 306)
   // full dinkumware 3.06 and above

   //   the library is conforming; but some features
   //   can't be used if the compiler is (real) VC6
   //
#  if THIS_IS_REAL_VC6 /* defined BOOST_MSVC &&... */
#     define BOOST_NO_STD_USE_FACET
#     define BOOST_HAS_TWO_ARG_USE_FACET
      ...
#  endif

#else

   //  <old version: has defects, regardless of the compiler>

#  define BOOST_MSVC_STD_ITERATOR 1
#  define BOOST_NO_STD_ITERATOR
#  define BOOST_NO_TEMPLATED_ITERATOR_CONSTRUCTORS
   ...

#endif

Isn't that enough?
