I'm not in a position to verify this for myself for another week, but I have a horrible feeling I know what's wrong: Monotone defines several one-character macros for its own use, and L() is one of them. It looks like Boost is using L() for its own purposes and expecting it not to be a macro. I'd argue that Boost headers should take care to defend themselves from the possibility of such macros, but fixing that in Boost might be an enormous amount of work, and in any case, 1.48 is already out there. If I'm right, this can also be fixed in monotone by moving all Boost and stdlib #includes above most-but-not-all application #includes; unfortunately that's exactly the opposite coding style from the present usage, and may involve messing with the base.hh convention (config.h obviously still needs to be the very first thing included in every file). zw -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
