Yeah, for strict backward compatibility get_posix_category() should be supplied.

It is too late for 1.37.0, however.

Thanks for the report,

Replying to bemandawes:

Oddly enough this occurs in 1.36.0 and when using Boost.Date_time -- I'm not sure if this bug is related to how Boost.Date_time in 1.36.0 is using Boost.System.

It is too late for 1.37.0, however.

It's alright. Perhaps this will make it into trunk/1.38.0?

Thanks for the report,

You're welcome, and thanks for the quick response.
