Touché.  Hadn't looked at resulting VC command-line and indeed, STLPort
was not included properly.  Only now, after much hair-pulling, inclusion
of STLPort headers with <stlport-iostream>off leads me to another perplexing
point:

C:\boost_1_32_0\boost/shared_ptr.hpp(431) : error C2039: 'basic_ostream' : is not a member of '_STL'

followed by a bunch of errors stemming from the absence of basic_ostream.

I looked through shared_ptr.hpp's inclusion path for missing references to
ostream or somesuch but could find none.

(building with <stlport-iostream>on works, but does not achieve what I want)

Could it be that my path settings are leading to ostream never being included?
