Hi Andreas,

Here is a zip of the project. It can go in the 'example' folder, parallel to
PingPong. I changed the references to msvc-9.0 to reference msvc-8.0, since
that's what I'm using.

#defining BOOST_STATECHART_USE_NATIVE_RTTI does make everything work, so I'm
looking into what this affects, but so far the explanation is not jumping
out at me.

Thanks for your help,
Bill
