Subject: [boost] [config] Macro for null pointer
From: Edward Diener (eldiener_at_[hidden])

I have found something like this to be helpful, when working with
multiple compilers:

#include <boost/config.hpp>
#if defined(BOOST_NO_NULLPTR)
#define BOOST_XXX_NULLPTR 0
#else
#define BOOST_XXX_NULLPTR nullptr
#endif

where XXX is some local name for my own use. And then use
BOOST_XXX_NULLPTR in places where a null pointer is needed.

Would this be a candidate for a BOOST_NULLPTR macro in the config
library instead ?
