 {{{
 Hi,
 I'm trying to port Boost 1.34 CVS to the eMbedded
 Visual C++ 4 compiler. In many projects there are
 compiler errors that lead back to MPL header files
 located in boost\mpl\aux_\preprocessed\msvc60\, or.hpp
 and and.hpp. They produce the following errors (example
 for or.hpp):

 or.hpp(41) : error C2908: explicit specialization;
 'or_impl<0>' has already been instantiated from the
 primary template
 or.hpp(41) : error C2039: 'result_' : is not a member
 of '`global namespace''
 or.hpp(41) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ';'
 before '<'
 or.hpp(41) : error C2059: syntax error : '<'
 or.hpp(43) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ';'
 before '{'
 or.hpp(43) : error C2447: missing function header
 (old-style formal list?)

 The following patch would add the necessary
 specialisation for or_impl<true> and and_impl<true> to
 the struct definition directly, and only for the evc4
 compiler (msvc8 with ARM target wouldn't use the
 alternative code).

 As I guess from the folders name the files are
 auto-generated. If the patch is rejected, is there a
 possibility to generate the proper code for the
 evc4-compiler?

Comment:
 Since we do not have a test setup for this compiler (no volunteers) and
 this ticket is four years old, I am closing it.
