Cool, thanks. I really hate modifying third party libraries.

...

I was running into problems with min and max being macros when attempting to port my code to .NET. When I went to look at visualc.hpp, I saw that NOMINMAX was only defined when _MSC_VER <= 1200. My break seems to have happened where a boost file was included, then a windows header came in, so the macros were enabled.

I know we are not supposed to rely on Boost.Config in our code, but it sure is nice :).

I've modified the config system so that NOMINMAX is defined in the win32 platform configuration rather than for VC6 specifically, likewise the undefs for min and max are in there now as well, hopefully this won't break anything ... :-)
