Comment (by michel):

 Boost has
 [[http://www.boost.org/development/requirements.html#Directory_structure|documentation]]
 for it:
   Make sure your code compiles in the presence of the `min()` and `max()`
 macros. Some platform headers define `min()` and `max()` macros which
 cause some common C++ constructs to fail to compile. Some simple tricks
 can protect your code from inappropriate macro substitution:
   * If you want to call `std::min()` or `std::max()`:
     * If you do not require argument-dependent look-up, use
 `(std::min)(a,b)`.
