Geometry Boost List: [geometry] invalid iterator dereference in traverse.hpp

Hi,

 

There is a small issue with the call to debug_traverse() in
\boost\geometry\algorithms\detail\overlay\traverse.hpp at line 359. The
issue is that current_iit might point to turn.operations.end so
dereference operation is invalid. In some cases this is caught by the
microsoft pageheap debugger even though BOOST_GEOMETRY_DEBUG_TRAVERSE is
not defined and debug_traverse() is nop.

 

The following patch is one way to fix the issue.

 

regards,

Vladimir
