Correct, Spirit 2.0 and higher has four parts, Classic (what you are
using), QI (the newer much fixed classic), Karma (does the opposite of
Qi), and Lex (a lexer).

Boost 1.36 is old, and I know Spirit.Classic has bugs back in that old
version that have been fixed later on (even in the latest Boost 1.41
Spirit.Classic still has some more bugs fixed, it is still being kept
up even if Spirit.Qi has fully replaced it in every way).  You
*really* need to update.

Spirit2.0 came out in Boost 1.39.  Spirit2.1 came out in Boost 1.41.
Spirit2.2 should come out in Boost 1.42 hopefully (it is backwards
compatible still, just has even more functionality, like being able to
define your own auto-type conversions).
