I can't compile the file; the BOOST_NO_STDC_NAMESPACE mistake results
in a compilation error (which prevents running). How would I override
this particular macro?

I could preprocess the file, and here are the results, removing the
macro printings that result two identical strings (which I think means
that the macro isn't defined at all):
