13252,Bootstrap.bat gcc throws compilation error (code is not c90 complilant),carlos.federico005@…,,"Trying to compile the new Boost 1.65.1 with Mingw w64 (gcc 4.8.3) on a Windows 10. 

While running {{{bootstrap.bat gcc}}} I get:

{{{
...

}}}

So making a small modification (declare the ''i'' variable outside the for-loop) into {{{boost_1_65_1\tools\build\src\engine\debugger.c:1128}}} I can make it compile perfectly.

I guess adding {{{--std=c99}}} or {{{--std=c11}}} into {{{boost_1_65_1\tools\build\src\engine\config_toolset.bat:204}}} could been even better.",Bugs,new,To Be Determined,Building Boost,Boost 1.65.0,Problem,,,
