#10471: Boost.Geometry fails to compile when OS X AssertMacros.h are included
--------------------------------------+---------------------------
 Reporter:  Robert Xiao <nneonneo@…>  |      Owner:  barendgehrels
     Type:  Bugs                      |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined          |  Component:  geometry
  Version:  Boost 1.55.0              |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:                            |
--------------------------------------+---------------------------
 The infamous AssertMacros.h header (see #2115) defines a macro called
 "check", which causes a compilation failure in
 <boost/geometry/geometries/concepts/check.hpp>. The header is
 automatically included by certain Apple frameworks, so it's a bit
 unavoidable.

 Per the resolution to #2115, instances of the word "check" should be
 replaced by something else to avoid this issue. (Damn you, Apple...)

 Testcase program:

 {{{
 #include <AssertMacros.h>
 #include <boost/geometry.hpp>
 }}}

 Compile with "c++ test.cpp". Compile errors:
