Comment (by anonymous):

 I also encountered the same issue when building boost by using a
 customized location of zlib and bzip2. It wasted me two days and I still
 got no clue: the error message is very cryptic and is meaningless (maybe
 not true to the boost guys). The only way I made it work is to add -I
 path_of_zlib/bzip2_header to cxxflags and add -Lpath_of_zlib/bzip2_lib to
 linkflags.
 It seems one reply in
 https://github.com/boostorg/iostreams/commit/08798f6fffd6b0bf1b08236dedf0b02f6d8aac8a

 says the same thing. But it looks to me the pull request does not examine
 the impact and does not update the document. I would not say that's a
 complete pull request.
