Mark,

First, this is a known problem [1] and Boost folks has discussed on
([2], [3]) how to fix it properly. It is not a trivial problem easy to
fix as good fixes may implicitly affect user's compilation environment
and act as double-edged sword [4].

IMHO, your fix is least intrusive, local, and completely under your
control, thus a good one.

Anyway, I've followed up [5] asking if anyone has come up with
solution to this problem.
