Comment:

 I'm going to tackle this slightly differently. There isn't an "expected"
 failure of Boost.Range this is unfortunately an expected failure of the
 Visual C++ standard library as you have described. Hence it is misleading
 to make my Boost.Range test fail since the algorithm actually works. This
 test result should pass. I shall modify the test to check for the correct
 result rather than test for equivalence to the standard library
 implementation.
