Hi,

with gcc-4.3.4 there is a warning

* warning: type attributes ignored after type is already defined

This warning can be removed by adding a forward declaration file. See attached patch.

* warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’

./boost/python/object/instance.hpp:14: warning: type attributes ignored after type is already defined

Can these patches be include in trunk?
