Cannot compile with libboost 1.60 & liblua5.3

[Bertram25]

See https://github.com/ValyriaTear/ValyriaTear/issues/522

In short, compiling luabind using the given library gives the following error output:

[  165s] In file included from /home/abuild/luabind/luabind/back_reference.hpp:26:0,
[  165s]                  from /home/abuild/luabind/luabind/class.hpp:72,

[  165s]        typedef boost::mpl::bool_<value> type;
[  165s]                       ^

My instinct tells me it may be some kind of namespace collision, or missing header problem but I can't be sure.

According to @susnux, when using the repository from @rpavlik, it is compiling fine on the same system.

Disclaimer:

• I don't have libboost 1.60 on my system atm (and didn't have the time to custom compile it yet), so I cannot reproduce on my own.
• The compilation of the libluabind library is being through a custom CMake script (in the ValyriaTear project) to ease overall compilation, so it might also be part of the problem, but the game runs fine with the provided luabind, so I doubt it somehow.

Last but not least, here is the diff between the two has_get_pointer.hpp files from the two project:

... The diff reveals no meaningful changes... ! So the bug is definitely elsewhere.

If anyone has an idea, I'm all ears. :)

Indeed simply a missing #include. Fixed.

Compilation with 1.60 does still spam a lot of warnings because Boost.FunctionTypes uses now-deprecated headers of Boost.TypeTraits.

Thanks for the quick fix @Oberon00 . I'll import it now.

Duly noted.
