    I experienced compilation problems with Boost 1.40. I am using Visual 
Studio 2005 and 2008. On both Boost compiles and links fine but is unusable 
in other code due to compilation errors. Currently I have access to errors 
produced on 2008 and it would be troublesome to get errors for 2005 (but if 
needed I will do it) - however the are the same (as to the message):

1>d:\libraries\boost_1_40_0\boost\integer_fwd.hpp(70) : error C2039: 
'long_long_type' : is not a member of 'boost'
1>d:\libraries\boost_1_40_0\boost\integer_fwd.hpp(70) : error C2065: 
'long_long_type' : undeclared identifier
1>d:\libraries\boost_1_40_0\boost\integer_fwd.hpp(70) : error C2913: 
explicit specialization; 'boost::integer_traits' is not a specialization of 
a class template
1>d:\libraries\boost_1_40_0\boost\integer_fwd.hpp(73) : error C2913: 
explicit specialization; 'boost::integer_traits' is not a specialization of 
a class template

and so on... It is hard for me to tell which header causes the error but if 
requested I will look for this.

    1.39 was just fine in both environments. The external (non-Boost) code 
did not change in the mean time.

    Any help?
