I can reproduce that on cygwin but not on other gcc platforms.  I'm 
convinced it's a bug in gcc, submitted with description and test case here: 
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23271.

However the good news is that the problem does not occur in Boost-1.33, so I 
suggest you either upgrade, or else drop the -pedanic option (in which case 
Boost-1.32 compiles without even a warning).

John.
