mysql57 @5.7.17: error: no type named 'self_ip_exception' in namespace 'boost::geometry::detail::self_get_turn_points'

I'm having issues with mysql57 not building under macOS 10.13
I'm seeing this on three different computers
I had no issues with this exact same setup under MacOS 10.12
A completely new install under macOS 10.11 had no issues either

Pixilla, this is your port, any ideas on fixing this?

I spend some time on troubleshooting this issue today. Turns out I had boost installed (via ports) and the build was picking it up instead of the bundled one (distfiles). The boost headers are picked up by the compiler through '-I/opt/local/include'. I'm unsure if there is a way to influence this through the build, i.e. place the bundled boost first...

Anyway I had boost @1.66.0_3 installed and removing it from the system resolved this issue. Perhaps @BjarneDMat can have another look to see if there is another version of boost on his systems (either through ports or manual install).

Not sure what a nice solution would be here is besides warning that a system installed boost was found...

MySQL 5.7 requires a very specific version of boost (1.59.0) [1] though it looks like this restriction has been lifted [2] for 8.0 (though unsure which versions are really supported).

1. ​https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/source-installation.html
2. ​https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/source-installation.html

All for now.

Anyone?

The only option is to temporarily disable boost, or use the trace mode. But see also #55487 for my failed attempt to upgrade mysql57.
