Hi guys,

you can reach all Rivet developers at <rivet at projects.hepforge.org>.
Please use that address rather than writing to individual people.

About your question:

I just compiled Rivet with -std=c++0x using gcc-4.5.1 and didn't get an
error or even a warning. So I'm wondering ... what exactly is this fix
