Is there any Boost policy that requires a library to ensure this kind of 
constraints?
> #5362     circular_buffer does not compile with BOOST_NO_EXCEPTIONS
Anthony would take care of this.

https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/6277
IMO, this library is not thread safe so this ticket should be invalid.

> #6747     Circular_Buffer / Bounded_Buffer inside Template class problem
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/6747
IMO, this ticket has not enough information.
> #7025     circular buffer reports warning: " type qualifiers ignored on function return type" while compile.
I could take care of this.
> #7950     Eliminate W4-warnings under VS2005
This ticket contains also a patch. Marshal?
> #8012     Inconsistency in linearize()
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/8012
This seams easy to fix if the option " make /linearize()/ work normally 
even on empty buffers" is taken.
I could take care of this.

optimizations
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/8438
this seams a little bit tricker.

HTH,
