a) what does "fails to compile" mean? Does the file cstdarg not exist? b) Hopefully I would prefer to find a "cleaner" way to do this that wouldn't require a a lot of changes - perhaps hoisting va_list to the std namespace - which is what I believe that the cstdarg file does. c) perhaps you might like to provide a suggested patch to the required files.

a) I mean compilation errors, cstdarg does exist, but va_list is not in std namespace b) c) If using stdarg.h instead of cstdarg is not 'clean' solution, then patch will be useless. It's QNX-specific bug.

Here is qnx specific workaround on va_list

cc gcc 3.3.5 on qnx 6.3.2 christian.leutloff@… added; gcc 3.3.5 on qnx 6.3.2 removed
version Boost 1.43.0 → Boost 1.42.0
milestone Boost 1.43.0 → To Be Determined

An alternative fix could be to reuse the similar change for LIBCOMO in factory.hpp to add the std:: namespace to the existing va_list implementation.

I have successfully build boost 1.42 with gcc 4.3.3 (qcc toolset) on QNX 6.4.1.

I will attach the one line patch, too.
