Hi All

I have run it to a problem that feature : Event Hierarchy see doc :
http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/libs/msm/doc/HTML/ch03s02.html#d0e1108

Does not work in case of sub state machine with favor_compile_time
policy. No trans get called on the sub state machine even it has a row
with event type to the event base class.

This now hit me badly because compiler runs out of heap if
favor_compile_time policy is not used but when it is used I can not
dispatch based on base type and I have about 150 different event so
declare a transition for it is a no go.

Is there any workaround for this problem ?.
