[Boost-users] Do the Range Adaptors really depend upon the RegEx static lib?

Hello,

I'm using the range adaptors from the latest version of the range library in
the vault.  Namely:
boost::adaptors::filtered
boost::adaptors::transformed

The Visual Studio linker was kind enough to inform me that these depend upon
the regex static library (libboost_regex-vc80-mt-sgd-1_38.lib).

Does anybody know why?

I'd rather not build the boost regex lib.  Is there any way to avoid this
dependency?
