Comment (by djh):

 Is there a workaround in the meantime?

 That is how do I tell Boost.Geometry to derive the distance between two
 points in the geographic coordinate system? From an implementation
 standpoint, I think this should be easily doable using e.g. the Haversine
 formula.

 Is there a quick fix that lets the RTree work with (longitude,
 latitude)-pairs or similar in the geographical coordinate system?
