#11694: Boost.icl tests incompatibility with Solaris

     Type:  Bugs                           |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined               |  Component:  ICL
  Version:  Boost Development Trunk        |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:                                 |
-------------------------------------------+---------------------
 About 20 boost.icl tests fail on Solaris with the following errors:
 Error:  Expected "class" or "typename" before "0x00000001"
 Error: "," expected instead of "0x00000001".

   This happens because some of the headers use _U as a name of template
 parameter:
   boost/boost_1_58_0/libs/icl/test/test_icl_quantifier_shared.hpp:
      ICL_IntervalMap_TEMPLATE(_T,_U,Traits,Trt) IntervalMap

  and _U is defined in Solaris /usr/include/iso/ctype_iso.h

  #define _U      0x00000001      /* Upper case */

  (also they use _L, _N, _S, _P, _C , _B, _X :)

 Names starting with two underscores or an underscore and an upper-case
 letter are reserved to the system. Declaring such names in an application
 has undefined results.

 The other headers which have similar issues are:
 libs/icl/test/test_icl_map.hpp
 libs/icl/test/test_functions.hpp
 libs/icl/test/test_interval_map_shared.hpp
 libs/icl/test/test_interval_quantifier_shared.hpp
