FWIW, I am also interested in libCstd support -- for the time being.  At 
the moment I am content to use the Boost-1.33.1 bits that did compile 
with that compiler/library combo.  Things started going downhill for me 
with Sun Studio/libCstd after that version.

Sun does not support Boost at all under libCstd.  libCstd is, as you 
say, very non-conforming.
