#5914: std:: qualifier missing for <cstring> function

Milestone:  To Be Determined            |   Component:  math       
  Version:  Boost 1.47.0                |    Severity:  Showstopper
 Keywords:                              |  
----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------
 In the math library, file
 boost/math/special_functions/nonfinite_num_facets.hpp
 includes <cstring>, but at line 144 refers to strlen without a std::
 qualifier. Although g++ accepts the code, it does not conform to the
 requirements of the C++ standard (1998, 2003, 2011). Change needed:
 ------- nonfinite_num_facets.hpp -------
 144c144
 <         int width = (int)strlen(prefix) + (int)strlen(body);
 ---
 >         int width = (int)std::strlen(prefix) + (int)std::strlen(body);

 g++ accepts the correct code, so there should be no compatibility issue.
