Hi Steven,

If I run:
bjam --prefix=/genome/Apps/boost_1_53_0/install/ --with-system  stage install
I get no errors.  So is there any way I can get a copy of boost installed that is statically linked?  The program I need boost for (cufflinks) requires them to be static.

Does it work if you use just --with-system?
If so then the problem is that some library
that depends on Boost.System is forcing
runtime-link=shared.
