 I get the following error when compiling a 3rd party library (the
 webtoolkit http://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt) which uses boost/bind on HP-UX
 using the gcc 4.2.1:

 It turns out that in somewhere else 'R2' is defined in this constellation.
 Since I don't know if and if yes where this define might be used I added a
 few lines before and after the template declarations.
 Before:
 {{{
 #ifdef R2
 #define __R2safe__ R2
 #undef R2
 #endif
 /* here follow the template declarations using R2 as a template class
 name*/
 [..]
 #ifdef __R2safe__
 #define R2 __R2safe__
 #undef __R2safe__
 #endif
 }}}
