Thanks for the report. It was recently fixed in develop:

Thanx. I was in a hurry and missed a look at the developer version (I was too clumsy for the web interface and I have no git on my machine).

However, according to your patch you are now using operator!= in your implementation. Actually this is the only reason I stumbled upon this bug due to operator ambiguities. If you want to get rid of dependencies to equal() you should at least copy their implementation IMHO (!(*a==*b)).

In the meantime you switched to algo_equal() from intrusive module. Thank you very much :-D

Sorry, I forgot to document the change in this bug. Thanks for your comment.
