boost/iterator.hpp was implicitly dragged in via boost/operators.hpp, from which it was removed in cb6500161b. It's not needed anyway, all it does is map boost::iterator to std::iterator.
A comment in boost/iterator.hpp and boost/detail/iterator.hpp mentions that
the files are obsolete and will be deprecated. All they do is pull some types
from namespace std into namespace boost.

Avoid 'reference to reference' error with strict C++03 compiler.
While I can't reproduce the error you describe, the patch looks good and it tested okay with Clang 6.0 on Mac and gcc-4.9.1 on Linux. Thanks for the patch.
Some (strict) C++03 compilers (e.g. `gcc -std=c++03`) reject
'reference-to-reference' in the template and typedef which described
in CWG DR106 [1].
In such situations, iterator_facade rejects reference type as a value
type and some special iterators will become ill-formed:
the test libs/range/test/join.hpp might be descriptive.

Also added an import into the boost::detail namespace for backward compatibility with Boost.Range. Added a pure_iterator_traversal metafunction that automatically converts iterator category as well.
This change excludes boost:: and boost::detail:: namespaces from ADL for unqualified function calls (e.g. algorithms). This reduces the possibility of name clashes with other libraries and user's code. One of the effects should be fixing test failures on gcc 4.2 and 4.4 due to clashed with Boost.TypeTraits.
Also some of the functions marked with inline keyword.
This makes iterators defined using iterator_facade more friendly to type inspection and fixes its use with next()/prior() since commit 651a869d4f.
The arithmetic, indexing and relational operators are only defined if the iterator category or traversal permits that. Note that the implementation requires partial template specialization support now.
