This affects Ubuntu 10.04 users as well (see duplicate #995106).

[Clint Byrum (clint-fewbar)]

I think it may be a bit early to start abandoning GCC 4.4. Ubuntu 12.04 has only just been released as the latest LTS Ubuntu with a gcc newer than 4.4. RHEL and CentOS 6 are in the same boat (though they have at least been around long enough that migrations should be under way).

Is there perhaps a compatibility layer available in boost for these newer features?

[Clint Byrum (clint-fewbar)]

Oh also Debian's latest stable release, "wheezy", only has GCC 4.4 available

[Brian Aker (brianaker)]

Yep,...

I can revert a change which will make all of this go away (the original fix was for OSX, but it can be solved differently).

[Brian Aker (brianaker)]

Can you pull trunk and verify the fix?

[Alexander Piavlo (lolitushka)]

It compiles ok now.
