I haven't tried boost 1.36.0 yet, so you're breaking new ground.

The boost error messages are rather verbose, but with enough practice
you learn which parts to ignore and where the interesting pieces are.
Of course you shouldn't have to get that practice by interpreting the
errors in *my* code.

Please send me the error message, I may be able to diagnose things
quickly. If I can't find a quick solution, I'll try a boost 1.36.0
install this weekend and see if I can figure out what's going on.
