You shouldn't see any of those errors from VC8.

Looks like either:

* Your Boost source tree is corrupted, or
* You're not really using VC8 in spite of what you may think.
* You're using an old/outdated version of Boost.
* You have more than one Boost version in your compilers include paths.

Or something else I haven't thought of :-)

Whatever, I suggest you do a clean unpack of a recent Boost release, check 
that your compilers include path has one Boost version in it only, and then 
try again.

HTH, John.
