It's very much a non-problem today, both because the majority of char[] 
arrays are indeed string literals, and because BOOST_FOREACH on a string 
literal seems pretty pointless.

Things may become more interesting in the future, when on platform X 
BOOST_FOREACH on int[] could decide to skip the last element of the array 
because utf32_t happened to map to int.

I'm not looking forward to that.
