compiler errors with gcc in c++11 mode

[Nathan Ridge]

he following code:

#include <string> #include <boost/xpressive/xpressive_static.hpp>

void foo(const boost::xpressive::sregex& regex) {

std::string input; boost::xpressive::regex_replace(input, regex, "");

}

when compiled with GCC (I tested with 4.6/4.7/4.8) in C++11 mode, gives the following compiler error:

It works fine if I don't compile in C++11 mode. It used to work fine even in C++11 mode in the 1.51 release (don't have 1.52 around to test ATM).
