12566,"rtree: equal_to ambiguous template instantiation when contain a raw pointer in pair, calling method remove",cedric@…,Barend Gehrels,"Im trying to compile this example:

main.cpp:
{{{
#include <boost/geometry.hpp>

namespace bg = boost::geometry;
namespace bgi = boost::geometry::index;
namespace bgm = boost::geometry::model;

int main() {
    using Point = bgm::point<double, 2, bg::cs::spherical_equatorial<bg::degree>>;
    using ValueType = std::pair<Point, int*>;
    using Rtree = bgi::rtree<ValueType, bgi::quadratic<16>>;

    int a,b;
    Rtree rtree;
    rtree.insert(std::make_pair(Point(45,45), &a));
    rtree.insert(std::make_pair(Point(45,45), &b));
    rtree.remove(std::make_pair(Point(45,45), &b));

    return 0;
}
}}}
using gcc 6.2.1 and boost 1.61.0 or 1.58.0 (no problem with boost 1.52.0)

I got folowing error:

no problem if I replace int* by int
