This is fixed in the upcoming release 1.35. For some reason this 
compiler requires an explicit "std::" qualification for std::streamsize, 
std::pair, and a few other types in Boost.Iostreams, even within the 
scope of "using namespace std." If you are using Boost 1.34.1, you 
should be able to fix the problem simply by inserting "std::" wherever 
the compiler complains.
