Volodya,

Back in March, I reported a problem with .rc files on Macintosh, you  
provided the patch below, and all was well.  That was when Boost  
1.38.0 was the current Boost version.  Since then Boost 1.39.0 and  
1.40.0 have come out, but the patch has not been included in either  
one.  Would you please merge this into the main-line code base so that  
it comes out with Boost 1.41.0?

Thanks,

Ian
