[boost] tuple and std::set question

All,

I was trying to use the tuple in a set, and the STL complained about
not having an operator&() - I think.

My question is, is tuple supposed to be usable in a set?

I read the STL docs: no mention of operator&() required.
I tried both STLport and gcc's stl.

I'm using gcc 3.2.2, and the snippet of code is real easy:

,----------------
| #include <boost/tuple/tuple.hpp>
| #include <set>
| 
| using namespace std;
| 
| using namespace boost;
| 
| int
| main(int, char *[]) 
| {
|   typedef tuple<int, int, int> Things;
|   
|   std::set<Things> mySet;
| 
|   Things oneThing(1,2,3);
|   mySet.insert(oneThing);
|   
|   return 0;
| }
`----------------

tia,

TJ
