The included header is: boost/statechart/result.hpp To test and fix, I isolated with: printf ""#include <${BoostHeader}>\nint main(void) { return 0; }"" | /Developer/usr/bin/gcc-4.0 -x c++ -Wall -Wshadow -Werror -o test -I${BoostRoot}/boost/include - The patch to address this is attached. Because this problem seems to come up frequently in all Boost subsystems, perhaps there is a way -Wshadow and -Wall can be forced for all unit tests?"
