They're in boost/detail/algorithm.hpp, which is used by Boost.Graph.

I could argue that the versions that Boost.Graph is using have been  
there since 2001, but I won't :)
Since it's a detail header, users shouldn't be relying on it anyway.  
I'll prepare a patch to rename (or put into boost::detail) the  
problematic algorithms, as necessary.

Thanks, Dean, for reporting this problem. Could you file a bug report  
in the Boost Trac at http://svn.boost.org describing the problem?  
Please assign it to me.
