I'm trying -- and failing miserably. According to bjam -d+2 -a -q (run from boost_1_30_0) the C++ compilation command being used is:

g++ -c -Wall -ftemplate-depth-100 -DBOOST_PYTHON_DYNAMIC_LIB -DBOOST_PYTHON_SOURCE -g -O0 -fno-inline -fPIC -I"libs/python/build" -I "/usr/local/include/python2.3" -I "/home/alex/pyr/boost_1_30_0" -o "libs/python/build/bin/libboost_python.so/gcc/debug/runtime-link-dynamic/shared-linkable-true/numeric.o" "libs/python/build/../src/numeric.cpp"

This first warns about a redefinition of _POSIX_C_SOURCE (in /usr/local/include/python2.3/pyconfig.h:844:1 , already defined in /usr/include/features.h:131:1 -- hopefully a bening warning...?).

Then the killers - a slew of error messages about /home/alex/pyr/boost_1_30_0/boost/python/converter/builtin_converters.hpp:106: of "parse error before & token" followed by "syntax error before & token", then again the same two messages for three more tokens (const > }), then again for lines 107, then for line 112 (and also 113, 114, 115, ...) errors that "to_python_value" is not a template, "detail" is not a class or namespace, etc etc. I've tried peering into the macros and templates involved but so far haven't come anywhere close to any understanding.

I hope it's just some silly error on my part -- any suggestions...?
