Will,

I've changed my original

        po::store(parse_command_line(argc, argv, desc),  vm);

to

        po::store(po::command_line_parser(argc, argv).
              options(desc).
              positional(pd).
              run(), vm);

where desc is is an options_description and pd is a positional_options_description.  This looks like an exact match for

     po::variables_map vm;
     po::store(po::command_line_parser(ac, av).
               options(desc).positional(p).run(), vm);
     po::notify(vm);

which is the example from http://www.boost.org/doc/html/program_options/tutorial.html.  However, the code still bombs if I give it a positional parameter or an option it isn't expecting.
