Re: [boost] Unnamed namespaces?

To say this another way, there is never an unnamed namespace; any namespace
for which you do not specify a name is effectively given a randomly
generated name.  That means each time you include a header file with an
"unnamed" namespace, you are creating a separate instance of everything in
that namespace.
