Building boost 1.61.0 with MinGW 5.3.0
<p>Has anyone had any success in building boost 1.61.0 for Mingw? I've Googled for this, and all the suggestions that apparently worked well in the past result in errors now. It doesn't help that boost's <a href="http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_61_0/more/getting_started/windows.html#install-boost-build" rel="nofollow" title="Getting Started on Windows">"Getting Started on Windows"</a> page is a poorly structured, incomplete mess that seems to have been getting only the most rudimentary updates for a while now (there are even a couple of dead links in there). I somehow managed to build boost 1.58 for an older MinGW version, but that was quite a while ago and I foolishly neglected to write down the individual steps required to make it work. :-\</p>
