------------------------------------------------------+---------------------
 This behaviour is unexpected. Either don't provide automatic construction
 from string literals or ensure it works as expected.

 {{{
 #include <boost/range/iterator_range.hpp>
 #include <string>

 int main()
 {
         std::string s = "Olaf";
         boost::iterator_range<const char*> r(s.data(), s.data() +
 s.size());
         assert(r == s);
         assert(r == "Olaf");
         return 0;
 }
 }}}
