Milestone:  To Be Determined        |   Component:  xpressive   
  Version:  Boost 1.51.0            |    Severity:  Problem

------------------------------------+---------------------------------------
 boost::xpressive::sub_match comes close to being a proper Range, but it's
 not quite. It has a nested type named 'iterator', but not one named
 'const_iterator', and it lacks begin() and end() functions.

 It should be very straightforward to add these missing bits and make it a
 proper range. Alternately, it could derive from
 boost::iterator_range<BidiIter> rather than std::pair<BidiIter, BidiIter>.
