Intel compiler, Boost and STLPort (3rd try)

Ahem, could someone please answer my simple question:

Is is possible to compile programs which use Boost and STLPort (instead 
of Microsoft Foundation Classes) with the Intel compiler, on Windows?

I am getting all kinds of weird errors which relate to streaming 
operators, which makes me think that my usage of STLPort might be 
involved?  On the other hand, if I use MSCV6 instead of Intel compiler 
(7.0) I do not get the same errors.  It seems that some of our in-house 
software can't be compiled with MSVC6 because of problems this specific 
compiler has with templates.  The same code compiles without problem on 
the latest GCC compilers.

My latest source of joy is the following (about which I am totally 
clueless) :
