Rene,

Thanks for the URL -- I haven't seen that page!  I was using the "nightly build"  option at http://www.boost.org/tools/build/v2/ .  LOL - As for stupid, short-sighted, etc., I'm captain of that ship, mate.

Cheers,
Mark

#ifndef is at line 675 (which does not line up with what you said was at
line 688). The true path of the first #ifdef OS_CYGWIN makes an
unreasonable assumption about the value of the user's PATH variable. My
path variable starts with "/usr/bin:" as set by me in my .bashrc file.
It could have started with ".:/usr/bin:". I don't understand the
author's expectation here.

The authors expectation, being me, is wrong/stupid/shortsighted :-)
Hence why John fixed the code:




You have the broken code. So what did you mean by "downloaded yesterday"?
