 getchar() is defined as a macro in uClibc. This hits gcc bug 58952 [1] for
 all
 gcc versions <= 4.8.2 and building boost/test fails:

 {{{
 ./boost/test/impl/unit_test_main.ipp: In function 'int
 boost::unit_test::unit_test_main(boost::unit_test::init_unit_test_func,
 int, char**)':
 ./boost/test/impl/unit_test_main.ipp:194:18: error: expected unqualified-
 id before '(' token
 To allow building boost/test with uClibc based toolchains with gcc <=
 4.8.2 use
 parenthesis for std::getchar.
 }}}

 To allow building boost/test with uClibc based toolchains with gcc <=
 4.8.2 use
 parenthesis for std::getchar:

 {{{
 (std::getchar)();
 }}}
