I'm not really familiar enough with Boost.Geometry to know if this is an 
issue or not, but something that might trip you up is that WinAPI RECTs 
are normally only half-closed -- ie. the bottom-right point is not 
actually contained in the rectangle.

I had a brief look through the Geometry docs but couldn't find anything 
specific, but I would imagine that it probably assumes inclusive boxes.
