Error in msvc in building inheritance.obj to build hello.pyd

Hello,

I am trying to build the boost 1.31.0 sample extension 
hello.cpp.
I can not compile the file inheritance.cpp because the 
two
files containing some templates: adjacency_list.hpp and 
mem_fn.hpp can not compile.

Does anyone have any solutions?
Instead of Visual C++ 6.0 should I use a different 
compiler?
Anyone have any success on any other compiler?

Did anyone manage to build a hello.pyd?

Thank you very much.
Here is my script below (with embedded results).

rem I have MSVC 6.0 Service Pack 5  on Windows 2000 
Service Pack 3 default installs on F:
rem Python is located in F:\Python23
rem Boost is located in W:\boost_1_31_0
rem MSVC stlPort 4.6.2 installed, compiled and 
rem VC studio include dirs and libraries dirs configured to 
use it.

rem build boost.jam (so I have a bjam.exe for all below)
W:

rem below since I have multilple toolsets installed I will 
always be specific.
