Hmm. This seems to have been an oversight on our part. The file is
included to use boost::algorithm::to_lower_copy and to_upper_copy.
Do the functions exist in Boost 1.31? And if so, in what files?

Yes, I think VC 8.0 was not yet released when Boost 1.31 came out. You
might try patching the Boost bjam files---you'll have to ask on the
Boost mailing list about this.
