It seems that the -std=c++98 flag is not supported by the boost version included (1.55.0).

In fact the whole RSEM code base seems to be c++11 ready except for a few implicit conversions of std::istream to bool. A trivial patch like this will allow you to use -std=c++11 instead:

Otherwise you could find out how to make sure set BOOST_NO_CXX11_HDR_TUPLE correctly for your platform (in which case Boost Tuple would be used). I don't have access to your compiler to test.
