David and Phillip -

Thanks for the responses.

I obviously made a blunder and didn't use: bjam "-sTOOLS=darwin".

One thing I noticed was compiling the hello world for debug works using: bjam

That threw me off, when I did a: bjam release

Is there a requirement to have python installed when building boost proper?  I noticed 6 targets failed related to the unit testing and wondered if they were related to python.

Best regards,

It looks like gcc.jam has enough other platform-specific code in it
these days to justify moving the OS X support into there.  I'll try to
find some time to do it, unless someone more qualified wants to.  :-)

I probably won't be able to get to it for the next week or so, but it
fits in with my long-term plans to make a toolset for OS X that handles
SDK's, universal binaries, target OS version, application bundles, etc.
