Comment:

 I did avoid this Problems by disabling the assertions. Since my gccxml is
 based on gcc 4.2.1, i suspect it should just be added to the compiler
 blacklist at the top of boost/range/concept.hpp, pretty similar to the gcc
 block
 {{
 //after this:
 #ifdef __GNUC__
     // GNUC 4.2 has strange issues correctly detecting compliance with the
 Concepts
     // hence the least disruptive approach is to turn-off the concept
 checking for
     // this version of the compiler.
     #if __GNUC__ == 4 && __GNUC_MINOR__ == 2
         #define BOOST_RANGE_ENABLE_CONCEPT_ASSERT 0
     #endif
 #endif

 // add this:
 #ifdef __GCCXML__
     // similar GNUC 4.2 issues for gccxml
     #if __GCCXML_GNUC__ == 4 && __GCCXML_GNUC_MINOR__ == 2
         #define BOOST_RANGE_ENABLE_CONCEPT_ASSERT 0
     #endif
 #endif
 }}
 I do have an easy fix for similiar issues in
 iterator/iterator_concepts.hpp, but it can be done with similar
 blacklisting.
 I dont know, however, if this is the right place for workarounds, maybe
 there is a more "central" way to fix this.
