Which sunpro version are you using?  The ICU support depends upon Boost.Iterator: these tests are currently passing with Sunpro-5.8, but I suspect issues with earlier Sunpro versions.

I was using 5.5, so I moved to 5.8. I get different errors now:

OK, I think we're moving slowly forward :-)
Can you comment out the #if logic in:
#ifdef BOOST_REGEX_HAS_OTHER_WCHAR_T
template<>
struct regex_iterator_traits<unsigned short*> : pointer_iterator_traits<unsigned short>{};
template<>
struct regex_iterator_traits<const unsigned short*> : const_pointer_iterator_traits<unsigned short>{};
#endif
So that those specializations are *always* defined and see what happens?
I'm a little confused why that preprocessor branch is taken in the first place though: you might try building with the -library=stlport4 option to see if that improves things.  You may also find that you need to update Boost.Config to match the latest compiler: try following the configuration instructions here: http://www.boost.org/libs/config/config.htm#config_script and see if that improves things.
HTH, John.

I added these lines to icu.hpp, and it seems to solve the problem. I hope it was the right thing to do.
namespace boost{
namespace re_detail{
//added by Itemfield
template <>
struct regex_iterator_traits <UChar*> :
    pointer_iterator_traits<UChar>
{};
template <>
struct regex_iterator_traits <const UChar* > :
    const_pointer_iterator_traits<UChar>
{};
}
}
Thanks, Moddy.

Yes, that'll do the trick fine.
I look into fixing this in cvs.
