 I'm using g++ 4.3.2 in Linux.  `is_iless' throws a `std::bad_cast'
 exception:

 {{{
 #include <string>
 #include "/tmp/testsvn/boost/algorithm/string/compare.hpp"

 int main() {
   boost::algorithm::is_less()(std::string("a"), std::string("b")); // this
 is ok
   boost::algorithm::is_iless()(std::string("a"), std::string("b")); //
 this throws `std::bad_cast'
   return 0;
 }
 }}}

 I assume I using `is_iless' correctly since `is_less' gives me a correct
 return value.
