The expression used as array size is declared
BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT, so it should be permissable.
Checking various compiler versions...
gcc 3.4.4, 3.4.5 and 4.0.0 fails.
gcc 4.0.2 works.
If I change the offending line from:
typedef value_type   table_type[ byte_combos ];
to:
typedef value_type   table_type[ 1ul << CHAR_BIT ];
it works on all these 4 versions of the compiler. Since
byte_combos is declared as
BOOST_STATIC_CONSTANT( std::size_t, byte_combos = (1ul <<
CHAR_BIT) );
this should be the same. Looks like a compiler bug.
