This is great, exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!  There is just one
snag.  I see it is version 1.55.0 but not in 1.42.0.  I use 1.55 privately
but the corporate environment uses 1.42. Do you know what version of boost
the locale stuff was introduced at?  It doesn't seem to be in 1.42 in the
same way. I see references to utf conversions in spirit but it is done
differently.
