 Hi,

 moving parts of range_const_iterator to the namespace range_detail in file
 boost/range/const_iterator.hpp leads to ambiguity in /range/detail/mfc.hpp
 line 747:

 (MSVC 11 on Windows Server 2008 R2/x64)

 25>..\src\libs\boost\boost\boost/range/mfc.hpp(747): error C2872:

 25>          could be

 '..\src\libs\boost\boost\boost/range/const_iterator.hpp(40) :

 ...

 The problem can be resolved by changing the name of

 boost::range_detail::range_const_iterator

 to

 boost::range_detail::range_const_iterator_helper

 I expect other begin/end adapters to run into the same problem.
