Comment (by eric_niebler):
I'll be honest with you, Michel. At this point, given the sheer size and
complexity of your patch, and the number of broken compilers that half-
implement C++11 that I need to support, and the past difficulties we
experienced trying to get this fix to fly, it's looking highly doubtful
that I'll be taking this patch. Especially considering that C++11 users
have a better option: use C++11's range-based for. I can tell you've
invested a lot of effort into this, and I greatly appreciate it.
I would very much like to move {{{BOOST_FOREACH}}} into maintenance mode.
It's a relic. I don't expect I'll be adding any new features to it.
I'll leave the bog open for now and may reconsider. But for now, I
wouldn't spend any more time on this if I were you.
