Hi Moshe,
it is a change in Boost.Context which is causing this.

I think I have a workaround. See below.

Looks fine and used to work until last week.

The hardlinks issue is a red herring.

No idea, but does not matter

By Boost.Context's Jamfile.

Add "address-model=32" to your commandline.
Explanation:
Since sometime last week, Boost.Context depends on Boost.System.
Unfortunately, Boost.Context has to explicitly calculate the <address-model>
and <architecture> properties in order to select the assembler needed, as
those properties have no default value (yet).
It so happens that Boost.System is once requested without those properties and
a second time with them. And the <layout> rule is asked to build both target
with the same effective name in stage/lib. => clash.
So explicitly specifying the properties leads to the right solution.
I cross-mail this to the Boost.Build list to see if someone has a solution.
Yours,
Jürgen
