Description
In VC8~VC10, a compilation error will be occurred when you declare "alloc_func" that can lookup from "boost::property_tree::detail::rapidxml" namespace before including <boost/property_tree/detail/rapidxml.hpp>.
struct alloc_func; #include <boost/property_tree/detail/rapidxml.hpp>
error C2226: syntax error : unexpected type 'alloc_func' A syntax error occurs before or in the type specifier.
Because the VC++ compiler cause unexpectedly lookup about alloc_func typedef in rapidxml.hpp.

Alternate fix: change all occurrences of alloc_func to alloc_func1.

Alternate fix: change all occurrences of alloc_func to alloc_func1.
This worked for me in windows. Have not yet tested if the fix works in other OS.

FYI, I also encountered this problem. One of the projects I'm involved with uses both <boost/property_tree/xml_parser.hpp> and the toolkit ITK, which includes a file named <zlib.h>. This <zlib.h> has a alloc_func typedef which appears to conflict with the one in xml_parser.hpp. So I would very much appreciate if this issue would be fixed.
