Description
Using allow-long-disguise in the parsing style, misspelled options are downgraded to positionals. The resulting error message: "too many positional options" is confusing and doesn't help at all the user to detect the error.

Hi,
thanks for the bug report. Sadly I'm busy right now, and won't be able to take a look into this in near future. Pull request or a patch will greatly improve the chances of a fix in next Boost version.
