Thanks for pointing that out. Explicit template parameter is an old reminiscent. 
It should no be there. So the correct syntax would be:

     typedef vector< string > split_vector_type;
     
     split_vector_type SplitVec; // #2: Search for tokens
     split( SplitVec, str1, is_any_of("-*") ); // SplitVec == { "hello abc","ABC","aBc goodbye" }
