BTW, the fact that all users who care about warnings will disable these 
in their code anyway, is an argument *against* disabling them 
permanently in the library header, not for it... Why insist on being 
"rude" as Michael claimed (and I happen to agree with him) by forcing 
such decision on the user, if all users who care will make that decision 
anyway? If the answer here is "because I save the user from disabling 
these warning himself" then it's not true. The user will have to disable 
them himself because they appear all over the place, not only from the 
Boost.Statechart code. And if he didn't disable them, then I guess he 
enjoys seeing pages of warnings, and that's his choice.
