FYI, I have successfully compiled ALPS 1.3.3 with Boost 1.37.0 with GCC 4.3.1 as well as with GCC 4.3.2 on CentOS 5.2 (x86_64). This suggests that the compiler itself is not the problem.

I was not able to compile ALPS 1.3.3 with GCC 4.3.1 but had no problems once I installed GCC 4.2.4 and compiled with that instead.
Hopefully this information will be of use to others who use a Linux distro which ships with GCC 4.3 and subsequently struggle to compile ALPS.
The only downside of this solution is that compiling GCC 4.2.4 takes a few hours with the default set of features.
Best,
Jeff
