     Type:  Bugs                        |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined            |  Component:  container
  Version:  Boost 1.59.0                |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:                              |
----------------------------------------+------------------------
 offset_ptr defines its rebind member as:
 {{{
    template <class U>
    struct rebind
    {  typedef offset_ptr<U, DifferenceType, OffsetType, OffsetAlignment>
 other;  };
 }}}

 but std::pointer_traits<T>::rebind is defined as:
 {{{
     Ptr::rebind<U> if exists, otherwise Template<U, Args...> if Ptr is a
 template instantiation Template<T, Args...>
 }}}

 This means that offset_ptr's rebind should just be an alias template
 rather than a struct with an ::other member.
