     Type:  Patches                  |      Status:  new        
Milestone:  Boost 1.42.0             |   Component:  config     
  Version:  Boost Development Trunk  |    Severity:  Problem    
 Keywords:  warnings                 |  
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
 In light of the increased warnings caused by Boost.Optional and
 Boost.Function in terms of using type-punned and/or reinterpret-casted (or
 reinterpret-cast-like) it seems the only suitable way of addressing them
 is to disable them for GCC -- but only through explicit inclusion of the
 warning_disable.hpp header.

 Attached is a patch to perform the disabling on GCC compilers that support
 the diagnostic pragma.
