5162	boost::iterator_range< T* > is unsafe	nicos@…	Neil Groves	"The following code compiles and does not generate any warning:
{{{
#include <boost/range/iterator_range.hpp>

int main()
{
  double v[] = { 1.0,2.0,3.0 };
  boost::iterator_range<float *> r = boost::make_iterator_range( v );
}
}}}

The culprits are adl_begin, adl_end, as in this case, they perform a C-style cast from double* to float*:
{{{
      template<class IteratorT>
        struct iterator_range_impl {
            template< class ForwardRange >
            static IteratorT adl_begin( ForwardRange& r )
            {
                return IteratorT( boost::begin( r ) );
            }

            template< class ForwardRange >
            static IteratorT adl_end( ForwardRange& r )
            {
                return IteratorT( boost::end( r ) );
            }
        };
