Comment (by Matt Clarkson <mattyclarkson@…>):

 @jim: I solved this by adding define=BOOST_USE_WINDOWS_H to fix the build.
 That forces the inclusion of `windows.h` pulling in the correct
 definitions for the symbols.  I went over the patches, they all seem to be
 in the trunk now, so was a little lost but found some more information
 around on Google about building Boost with MinGW x64.
