9428,Lib program_options build fail for mingw,Jan Rosendahl <jan.rosendahl@…>,,"Library program_options (boost 1.55, same applies to earlier boost versions) does not build for mingw (4.6.2). Don't know if MinGW is fully supported by boost, but some libraries do seem to have adaptation for it.
Solution seems straight-forward. File ...\libs\program_options\src\parsers.cpp:

#if !defined(_WIN32) || defined(__COMO_VERSION__)
extern char** environ;
#else
// SMAL patch for MinGW
#if defined(_WIN32) && defined(__MINGW32__)
extern char** environ;
#endif
