Jean,

Indeed, I mixed up perl and python syntax. The line should be
module_cmakeargs['boost'] = '-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="' + os.environ['CXXFLAGS'] + ' 
-std=c++17"'

Note the single quotes around the python arguments and the double quotes 
setting off the string value passed to -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS.

Regards,
John Ralls
