Milestone:  To Be Determined                     |  Component:  regex
  Version:  Boost 1.54.0                         |   Severity:  Problem

 Line 106:

 hmap = CreateFileMapping(hfile, 0, PAGE_READONLY, 0, 0, 0);
 if((hmap == INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) || (hmap == NULL))
 {
   CloseHandle(hfile);
   hmap = 0;
   hfile = 0;
   std::runtime_error err("Unable to create file mapping.");
   boost::re_detail::raise_runtime_error(err);
 }

 According to MSDN (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-

 us/library/windows/desktop/aa366537%28v=vs.85%29.aspx), CreateFileMapping
 returns NULL on failure, and not INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE.
