Unable to compile code calling equal_range () members

[anonymous]

The following code

#include <boost/property_tree/ptree.hpp>

int main (int, char * [])
{
	boost::property_tree::ptree pt;

	pt.equal_range ("");
}

generates the following error message using gcc-4.4.3 on 64-bit Snow Leopard:

I see similar error messages using gcc-4.0, 4.2, and 4.3 on Snow
Leopard, Fedora Core 12, and RHEL 4 with Boost 1.41, 1.42, and trunk from SVN.

Changing the argument to equal_range () to std::string("") or
boost::property_tree::ptree::key_type ("") generates similar error messages.
