#1881: max() & min() macros are leaking from <windows.h> into entire project
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  Denis Nesterov  |       Owner:  anthonyw
     Type:  Bugs            |      Status:  new     
Milestone:  Boost 1.36.0    |   Component:  thread  
  Version:  Boost 1.35.0    |    Severity:  Problem 
 Keywords:  min max macros  |  
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 Macros max() & min() are leaking out of <Windows.h> through boost/thread
 library, ruining every language construction with words "max" or "min".
 My solution was to define NOMINMAX before including every boost header.
 Problems began after upgrading boost from 1.34 to 1.35.
