[Boost-users] Using boost 1.35.0 on Mac OS X with Xcode 3

I am rebuilding a library that was last compiled a year ago using an  
earlier version of boost and an earlier version of Xcode (2.4) and an  
earlier version of Mac OS X (10.4).

I downloaded boost_1_35_0 distro for my Mac and built it using the  
standard configuration and build procedures.  That seemed to go OK.  I  
am compiling C++ source code that formerly compiled, without errors or  
warnings, but now reports the following errors in many files:

"error: 'snprintf' is not a member of 'std'"

And, the offending line is the following from the c++locale.h file  
(the error is reported on the line referencing snprintf):

#ifdef _GLIBCXX_USE_C99
       const int __ret = std::snprintf(__out, __size, __fmt, __prec,  
__v);
#else
       const int __ret = std::sprintf(__out, __fmt, __prec, __v);
#endif

Does anyone know the source of this problem.  There is absolutely no  
changes in my source that is being compiled.

I am dual posting this on both the boost-users and the Mac Xcode lists  
because I am not sure which is the more appropriate forum.
