Hi John,

You weren't explicit on where to get the headers from, so I tried it 
once from /usr/local/include, and once from within the build directory. 
  I added a 'int main( void ){ return 0; }' once I realized that it 
compiled fine with local headers.

-bash-3.00# i386-unknown-openbsd3.8-eg++ 
-I/usr/local/include/boost-1_33_1 tryme
.c
tryme.c:14:2: #error err4
tryme.c:18:2: #error err5
tryme.c:21:2: #error err6
-bash-3.00# i386-unknown-openbsd3.8-eg++ -I/home/quantum/boost_1_33_1 
tryme.c
