Ok, i have the same problem on ubuntu 8.10 with boost 1.37,

it is the following that causes the build to fail:

boost/iterator/iterator_adaptor.hpp:230: error: invalid application of
‘sizeof’ to incomplete type ‘boost::STATIC_ASSERTION_FAILURE’

some googling learned me that this is cause by trying an assert on a
non-class:

this probably means there is something wrong with the iterators we use
in the parser:

this line caused the problem:
---
scan.first += advance_on_error;
---
scan.first is an iter_t (see parser-types.hpp, line 161)
advance_on_error is an std::ptrdiff_t

and than i get lost in the code. I have absolutely no idea were the
problem comes from.

Submit a bug report. We'll track the issue in there.
