Well, in principle the patch is OK, but whatever you're doing that's
causing that code to be compiled with CW8 is emphatically *NOT* OK.
At best it represents a deadly ODR trap.

So I'd rather not see you make any changes to detail/iterator.hpp --
that part of the code is not meant for conforming compilers.
