Bootstrapping Boost 1.66 fails on Windows 10 using wingw gcc

[hepler@…]

I'm attempting to bootstrap boost 1.66 on a Windows 10 machine so I can use it with Code::Blocks and wxWidgets

It fails when running ./bootstrap.bat gcc

It appears to be failing to find two functions: UnregisterWait and RegisterWaitForSingleObject

Please see the attached images for error message and generated log

It seems to need: -D_WIN32_WINNT=0x501
