Milestone:  Boost 1.36.0             |   Component:  iostreams

 An example is IBM Visual Age.

 Possible solutions are one or more of the following:

  1. Provide a macro which when defined suppresses the restrict() function
  2. Provide an alias restrict_()
  3. Provide an alias xxx() where xxx is a good descriptive name
  4. Rename restrict()
