Как выставить классы C++ с помощью const_iterator

Я использую Boost.Python для предоставления Сторонний API C++.

Файл заголовка, к которому я пришел, объявляет итерируемый класс (имеет методы begin и end) и пользовательский класс итератора, с помощью которого выполняется итерация: -

// File: data.hpp

#include <utility> // for std::pair
#include <cstring> // for size_t

namespace notmylib {

    // forward declaration
    class DataIterator;

    // Storage for arbitrary data
    class Data
    {
        public:
            Data(void);
            virtual ~Data(void);
            // ...
            typedef DataIterator const_iterator;
            const_iterator begin(void) const;
            const_iterator end(void) const;

            typedef std::pair<int, int> TRange;
        private:
            TRange m_data;
    };

    // Data iterator class
    class DataIterator
    {
        public:
            // constructors
            DataIterator(void);
            DataIterator(const Data);
            ~DataIterator(void);

            // copy constructor
            DataIterator(const DataIterator& iter);
            // assignment operator
            DataIterator& operator=(const DataIterator& iter);

            // Comparison operators
            bool operator==(const DataIterator& iter) const;
            bool operator!=(const DataIterator& iter) const;

            // Data Range
            typedef TData::TRange TRange;
            TRange  GetRange(void) const;
            Data    GetRangeAsData(void) const;

            // Go backwards one step
            void   Rewind(void);
        private:
            Data   m_data;
            size_t m_index;
    };
}

Я создал минимальные классы-оболочки, полученные из них: -

// File: pydata.hpp
#include "data.hpp"

namespace mylib {
    class PyData
        : public notmylib::Data
    {
        public:
            PyData(void);
            virtual ~PyData(void);
    };

    class PyIterator
        : public notmylib::DataIterator
    {
        public:
            PyIterator(void);
            PyIterator(const notmylib::Data);
            PyIterator(const PyIterator& iter);

            ~PyIterator(void);
    };
}

И объявление Boost.Python: -

// File: pydata.cpp
#include "pydata.hpp"

#include <boost/python/class.hpp>
#include <boost/python/iterator.hpp>
#include <boost/python/module.hpp>

BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(const_iterator)
{
    using namespace boost::python;

    class_<mylib::PyData, boost::noncopyable>("Data",
            "Iterable Data storage class.")
        .def("__iter__",
            iterator<const mylib::PyData>() /*, // */ )      ///< iterator / range / iterators ?
         //   boost::python::return_value_policy<            ///< This CallPolicy 
         //       boost::python::copy_const_reference> >() ) ///  doesn't work either
        ;

    class_<mylib::PyIterator>("DataIterator",
            "Iterator for Data class. Don't actually need to expose...")
        .def("__eq__", &mylib::PyIterator::operator==)
        .def("__neq__", &mylib::PyIterator::operator!=)
        // ...
        ;
}

Единственная странность здесь, кажется, заключается в использовании определения типа const_iterator. Это описано в Boost.Python документацию по итератору, и, насколько я понимаю, все, что ему нужно, это квалификатор const в параметрах шаблона iterator. то есть

boost::python::iterator<const mylib::PyData>()

Однако это приводит к следующей ошибке компилятора при использовании GCC 4.7.2 в Linux x86_64:

g++ -std=gnu++98 -c -g -O1  -fPIC -I/usr/include/python2.7  pydata.cpp -o pydata.o

Как должен быть представлен такой итерируемый класс?
