[Boost-users] [date_time] Compilation error with MSVC8

Hello, before I explain my problem I'd like to apologize in advance if 
the error is on my part. Also this might have double posted because I 
believe I made an error initially, sorry if that's the case.

I have a program using the date_time library. It compiles with msvc7.1 
and MinGW but not under msvc8. Very simple usage is enough to recreate 
the error:

#include <boost/date_time/posix_time/posix_time.hpp>

...

boost::posix_time::ptime tim = 
boost::posix_time::second_clock::local_time();

std::cout << tim;

I've attached the error output to this mail, I realize it is long but I 
wasn't sure if any bits could be safely left out.

Any help that can be offered on this issue would be very much appreciated.

Kind regards, Eoin
