Comment (by Brian Vandenberg <phantall+boost@…>):

 As for the 'why' of this, I'm not really sure.  The ```attribute_set```
 and ```attribute_value_set``` classes (among others) use this idiom of
 forward declaring a class before marking it as a friend class.

 I tried using some compiler options to force it to only use explicitly
 specialized versions of the class and the error wouldn't go away.
