Hi,

I have bad news.
Inspite of that solution above works with older and
newer Boost versions it's not recommended to use old-style
verson for Boost 1.33.

Here is a small thread in which I'm asking how to procede:

http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.user/17409

Gennadiy does not recommend the approach I revealed as working:

No - old names are depricated. You still could use it.
But it's going to be removed in some future release.
Boost 1.34 should be out pretty soon. You may want to wait till it's out
and rely purely on new names.

Please, discuss a little how should we handle this issue?

Cheers
