[Boost-users] Problems with Cygwin/g++ and boost::spirit

I am using Cygwin's g++ 3.4.4 and the official Cygwin Boost package
version 1.33.1. This minimal programm

  using namespace boost::spirit;
  rule< > r;
  r = real_p;
  bool b = parse(inp.c_str(),r,space_p).full;

produces the following error:

g++ -c -o objs/src/Main.o -D__cygwin__ -O  -Isrc -Ilibutil/include
-Ilibrsrc/include src/Main.cpp
/usr/include/boost/spirit/core/scanner/impl/skipper.ipp:173:

boost::spirit::nil_t, boost::spirit::nil_t>, SkipT =

boost::spirit::nil_t>::do_parse_virtual(const
boost::spirit::scanner<const char*, boost::spirit::scanner_policies_t>&)'

Using the parser expression directly works without problems:

  bool b = parse(inp.c_str(),real_p,space_p).full;

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Patrick.
