Actually it's not that simple. Out-of-the-box Spirit 1.6.3 only works if 
it's used as in place replacement for 1.8 . The use of double quotes 
instead of angle brackets causes the compiler to include 1.8 files from 
1.6 headers. To overcome this problem you can either export from Boost's 
CVS SPIRIT_1_6 branch or tweak the attached Python script to fix the 
1.6.3 distribution.
