Hello Anders, I'm afraid Boost.Lambda, as well as many other Boost libs
does not work on such an old compiler as VC++ 6.0. If you can afford
upgrading to VS2005 just do so.

The page at

http://engineering.meta-comm.com/boost-regression/1_34_0/user/summary_release.html

gives you a bird's-eye view of the degree of compatibility of Boost libs with
different compilers.
