When I compile with:
{{{g++-4.5 -std=c++0x -I/usr/include/python2.6 -lboost_python -lpython2.6 test.cpp}}}

Test file:
{{{
#include <boost/python.hpp>

void translate_out_of_range(std::out_of_range const& e) { PyErr_SetString(PyExc_IndexError, e.what()); }

int main() {
    boost::python::register_exception_translator<std::out_of_range>(&translate_out_of_range);
}
}}}


The problem appears to be the collision between boost::bind and std::bind (new in c++0x).

The fix is trivial: in boost/python/exception_translator.hpp line 21, simply use boost::bind(...) instead of bind(...)
