Hi KK,

Thanks for the speedy reply.

And for Boost 1.66 we are really screwed because a good ten line above we
have

//Ignore -pedantic errors here (anonymous structs, etc.)
#if defined(BOOST_GCC)
#  if (BOOST_GCC >= 40600)
#     pragma GCC diagnostic push
#     if (BOOST_GCC >= 60000)
//#        pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-Wpedantic"
#     else
//#        pragma GCC diagnostic ignored "-pedantic"
#     endif
#  else
#     pragma GCC system_header
#  endif
#endif

where I *had to* comment out the pragmas because CRAN Policy insists on not
altering compiler diagnostics.  :-/

Nick:  In short no easy fix.

Greetings from across Chicago,  Dirk
