I am sure legal views on this would be useful, but I fear that if you ask
n lawyers for their opinion, you will end up with more than n+1 opinions!
Can't we tap some of these firms that are worrying about this for
their legal views, for what they are worth?

Dear all,
just a minor issue for the upcoming(?) lexical_cast in 1.30.0:
lexical_castbool( true ) returns false,
since std::ios::boolalpha is not set by default.
How about changing this?

the (really useful!) boost test library provides the test tool macro

Boost libraries often define exception classes, usually derived from the
standard library exception hierarchy. Users sometimes ask for further
refinement, so the library ends up with its own hierarchy.
