Hi,

I'm not a github user or a Boost developer, merely a user. I thought by
raising it on the mailing list it'd be picked up by a maintainer and taken
care of. Am I mistaken? Happy to learn what is expected from users of Boost
who find issues, and whether the expectations vary depending on the Boost
library in question.

Regards,

Pete
