(Function `setbuf()` is declared virtual in base class.) This might be an indication of a bug. If not, I would recommend using a different construct that avoids confusion, for instance declaring the function override final in newer versions of C++, or providing another function with different name but with the same semantics as the overriding `setbuf()`. Here's the link to the offending call: https://github.com/boostorg/lexical_cast/blob/develop/include/boost/detail/basic_pointerbuf.hpp#L42" Bugs closed Boost 1.68.0 lexical_cast Boost 1.65.0 Problem fixed
