Yikes indeed ;-)

But rest assured, I've fixed the problems asserted on by the iterator test
code of the VC8 STL (at least the problems reported by you and Michiel).
Because these bug were quite serious, I've uploaded a new version of Wave,
which you should use for further investigations here:
http://spirit.sourceforge.net/dl_more/wave-1.1.13.zip, additionally I've
updated the Boost-sandbox CVS to contain the very same bits.

Thanks for your insights!
