I'm not sure exactly. But I think the compiler you're trying to use was
the state-of-the-art for most of the 1.34.x lifetime; so perhaps your
chances are better.

Well, apparently 1.35 doesn't work *that* well with VC 8.0, because
you've found a problem.

I have never seen the problem you're reporting when compiling OpenVRML
0.17.6 with VC 9.0 and Boost 1.35.0. That (and the fact that the error
messages you're showing point to Boost code) leads me to conclude that
the problem is an incompatibility between Boost 1.35.0 and VC 8.0 that
OpenVRML's usage is triggering.

I can't promise you that Boost 1.34.1 will work; but I don't have any
better suggestions at the moment.
