If possible, it's best to avoid the problematic Apple header. If not
try either including the boost headers before the apple headers or
undefining check before including boost:

#if defined(check)
#undef check
#endif

#include <boost/iostreams/...>

Since the problematic code is in an implementation detail, I think we
can fix this for the next version of boost by renaming 'check'.
