Hi! I am unable to compile dev-libs/boost on my Raspberry Pi 3. It failing. I've also tried 1.56 and 1.58. Both are failing with exact the same error.

I wonder if that CFLAGS are "sane"... but I don't know if maybe for RPI is needed or similar :/
(In reply to Pacho Ramos from comment #2) > I wonder if that CFLAGS are "sane"... but I don't know if maybe for RPI is > needed or similar :/ I've tried also CFLAGS="-march=armv8-a -O2 -pipe" Did not help. I've even took a fresh stage3, upgraded GCC and still failing to compile boost with that relaxed CFLAGS.
As a workaround: Adding "-DBOOST_VARIANT_USE_RELAXED_GET_BY_DEFAULT=1" to CXXFLAGS does the trick. After that, dev-libs/boost is compiling fine..
Seems to be a somewhat lingering issue... http://lists.boost.org/boost-users/2012/05/74658.php
Obsolete, reopen if issue persists. commit 400e20295bf062a0bf697acce718e78116b143e2 Author: David Seifert <soap@gentoo.org> Date: Tue Apr 4 19:33:14 2017 +0200 dev-libs/boost: Remove old
