Hi!

Is there any progress in the bug #2539 ?? It seems that the patch published
there which is against a rather antiquated boost version is the only
solution to the problem of iterator_adaptor/facade constructs which are
random_access-tagged in order to make use of true random access operations
in distance/advance operations. This is critical in performance relevant
code...

So is there any progress in incorporating some fixes in the public trunk? I
understand that the problem is a misconception of the stl there, but an
official solution would be great here...

Sebastian
