This is kind of late (a month), but if you want a working example of this, I just updated and checked in my C++ lexer example into the Boost CVS. The lexer itself is implemented using Spirit grammars, and it's separated from its users by an opaque interface kind of like the one Joel describes. Now I'm in the process of cleaning it up and adding a few features, like making it multi-layered (lexer -> preprocessor -> parser, with all the layers separated from each other), so I'll check it in as soon as I'm done.
