Are you planning to port Boost.Python to Borland? The Borland template
machinery is broken enough that I decided not to invest in trying to
get it to work with Boost.Python at all. I tried my test cases against
the free Borland 5.5.1 compiler and quickly gave up since they were
all failing. I'd love to have a port, but I'm guessing it'd be a
(very) significant investment of effort to do one.
