[Visualpython-users] Help with Mac Boost library?

I built Boost 1_41_0 on an Intel Mac with Python 2.6.4 installed on Snow 
Leopard (OSX 10.6). Because with 10.6 the default for compiling is 
64-bit, and the Carbon component of Visual is supported only for 32-bit 
programs, I specified 32-bit compilation when building Boost and when 
building Visual.

When I try to build Visual, I get errors in compiling render_manager.cpp:

from ../vpython-core2//src/core/util/render_manager.cpp:4:
../vpython-core2//dependencies/boost_files/boost/exception/diagnostic_information.hpp:29: 
error: declaration does not declare anything
../vpython-core2//dependencies/boost_files/boost/exception/diagnostic_information.hpp:30: 
error: declaration does not declare anything
../vpython-core2//dependencies/boost_files/boost/exception/diagnostic_information.hpp:31: 
error: expected primary-expression before ‘)’ token
../vpython-core2//dependencies/boost_files/boost/exception/diagnostic_information.hpp:40: 
error: declaration does not declare anything
../vpython-core2//dependencies/boost_files/boost/exception/diagnostic_information.hpp:41: 
error: declaration does not declare anything
../vpython-core2//dependencies/boost_files/boost/exception/diagnostic_information.hpp:42: 
error: expected primary-expression before ‘)’ token

Below is the start of the file "diagnostic_information.hpp" with line 
numbers 29 and 40 indicated. Can someone with good Mac and/or C++ skills 
suggest a fix or workaround? I did Google around a bit without finding 
anything about this problem.
