This is similar to an earlier posting I just sent a reply to. From the error message
you quote, I'm guessing you're using MSVC. As mentioned in the posting I just sent,
the 1.30 version of lexical_cast had some problems when used on platforms without
intrinsic wchar_t. Could you perhaps tried the latest CVS version (if you haven't),
and if it still doesn't work, could you have given the name and version of the
compiler you tried it on?
