Well, the Boost libraries simply don't offer visibility support on gcc.

Well, I've patched my CVS Head to enable visibility support on gcc.
But I'd rather like to 
a) get 1.34.0 out as fast as possible.
b) get the switch to svn done
c) get the new release procedure working
d) get regression tests on Trunk 

and then start a discussion about this patch ...
If you like, I see if I can extract the diff from my other changes.

CVS really gets on my nerves...

Yours,

Jürgen
