Diamondback's image_transport fails to compile, how come?

edit

I am compiling ROS Diamondback from source, following the instructions at http://www.ros.org/wiki/diamondback/Installation/Arch. Most of the packages, especially core ones like roscpp compile without any problems, but when compiling image_transport via

rosmake image_transport

I receive the following error, where

[ rosmake ] Output from build of package image_transport written to:

The compiler doesn't like line 59 in image_transport/src/publishers.cpp

 56   uint32_t getNumSubscribers() const
 57   {
 58     uint32_t count = 0;
 59     BOOST_FOREACH(const PublisherPlugin& pub, publishers_)
 60       count += pub.getNumSubscribers();
 61     return count;
 62   }

This very much seems like some piece of code trying to instantiate an abstract class that contains pure virtual methods (=0). Yet, I expect Diamondback's source tag to compile and be consistent. Is it possible that this is symptom of an incompatibility of ROS diamondback with a certain Boost version?
