Indirect Iterator Adaptor, std::set and MSVC 6.5

The following produces an internal compiler crash in MSVC 6.5

#include <set>
#include <boost/iterator_adaptors.hpp>

int main()
{
  typedef std::set<int *>                      type0;
  typedef boost::indirect_iterator_generator<
    type0::iterator,const int>::type           type1;

  type0 s;
  type1 it(s.begin());

  return 0;
}

This happens for std::set only, using say std::vector instead works
fine.
Is some workaround known? TIA
