#1274: Useless error message

 Reporter:  anonymous         |       Owner:  vladimir_prus  
     Type:  Bugs              |      Status:  new            
Milestone:  To Be Determined  |   Component:  program_options
  Version:  Boost 1.34.1      |    Severity:  Problem        
 Keywords:                    |  
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 When the user provides two or more identical options that don't accept
 multiple values, program_options throws an instance of
 boost::program_options::multiple_occurrences that tells very little what
 occurred:

 {{{
 terminate called after throwing an instance of
 'boost::program_options::multiple_occurrences'
   what():  multiple_occurrences
 }}}

 It would be useful to say at least which option was provided multiple
 times.
