[algorithm] - defect due to accidental ADL

[Neil Groves-3]

Hello,

I have been investigating an issue reported by a user of the RangeEx library
proposal. The conclusion was that boost/algorithm/find.hpp suffers from
accidental ADL. This was confirmed by protecting against accidental ADL in
this file and the user confirming that this solved their problem.

Would it be useful to the current maintainer if I went through the source
code and fixed similar issues? I would be happy to provide the files for the
maintainer to commit. Alternatively is it possible to have agreement and
then write access to the repository to fix this problem?

Thank you in anticipation,
Neil Groves

Thanks for spotting that out.

I can apply the patch if you send it to me.

Thanks,
