 Hi,

 I have a rule in the grammar defined as:

 typedef qi::rule<Iterator, std::string(), qi::ascii::space_type> Rule;

 Next I would like to define such a rule by:

 Rule operation = lit("+") | lit("sum")

 However, this will create errors. The problem seems to be the one-
 character string "+". If it is changed to e.g. "++" then there is no
 problem. It looks like "+" is interpreted as a single character and not as
 a string.
