 Apple has a header called {{{<AssertMacros.h>}}} that {{{#define}}}s both
 “{{{check}}}” and “{{{check_error}}}.”  These macros naturally collide
 with the same names in Boost.  We should consider a global change.  That
 would also probably require a global policy change for checkins.

 Assigning to Beman, Cc'ing John M, component "inspection script" assigned
 to John although I might be wrong about that, but obviously we need to
 discuss this.  Maybe we'll decide to make it "wontfix"
