Second, I'm not sure what I get when I check out the boost files using CVS, as instructed in the "Getting Started" section of the web site. Do I have "HEAD" this way? If not, how do I get it?
Its clear to me that you have the "HEAD". This error only appears in the HEAD branch of the cvs tree. You should make sure that HEAD is what you want. The head is where the development code is - RC_1_34 is where the next release versionis and the "normal" current one for users is Boost 1.33. By using the HEAD, you're helping debug the libraries and its much appreciated. But you should know that that is what you're doing.
Thanks for the advice! I guess I'm living dangerously. I'll have to figure out how to check out the RC_1_34 code instead.
So I traced your error to and error in a recent enhancement that I've checked in to the HEAD branch. I'll check in a correction is a few days.
Ach. I was sure I was doing something dumb. Thanks very much for your help with this! Deane
