Sure.  Thanks for the quick fix.

Would you mind taking a look at the patch for Boost.Graph?  The original limitation (fixed by the patch) to dimensions > 1 is entirely artificial and reduces the utility of this library.  Indeed, in generic code it is easily possible to have a dimension == 1.  It would be very nice to get this in.

Thank you very much.
