----------------------------------------+-----------------------------------
 An
 [http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/libs/units/example/autoprefixes.cpp

 example source file]  contains the Euro currency symbol, but is encoded
 neither in UTF-8 nor in ISO-8859-x.
 Could you replace that wrongly encoded symbol with a standard one, e.g.,
 UTF8 (i.e., €)?

 Among other things, that issue:
  * wrongly displays in Web browser (as seen
 [http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/libs/units/example/autoprefixes.cpp

 here])
  * triggers errors when performing RPM packaging
