Thanks for the update Nasos.

All of my development is on MSVC12, so...  I guess I was blind to the fact
that gcc on Linux was working pretty well in development.  My eyes only
went to the compiler I cared about :)  Once you merge the checked_iterator
fix for MSVC would it be as simple as moving replacing the 1.56 library
folder with that from the development branch or are there other
dependencies?

Thanks,
-Matt
