343	Swapped source and target in exception	zigmar	kevlin	"{{{
When lexical_cast<> throws exception, the source and 
target parameters are swapped (source_type() return 
target and wise versa).

The reason, that when exception is thrown, the 
parameters to exception's contructor passed in wrong 
order.
The line 190 in ""boost/lexical_cast.hpp"" reads:
      throw_exception(bad_lexical_cast(typeid(Target), 
typeid(Source)));

instead of:
      throw_exception(bad_lexical_cast(typeid(Source),
typeid(Target)));

(the constructor's first parameter is the type id of the 
source)
