Sorry for leaving the results out, I don&#39;t know what I was thinking. I was in too much of a hurry I suppose. Note that I really don&#39;t want to drop the layout=system, since if I do my LIB names get complex. I do not want the boost version number or anything else in the name. Basically, I want the names to look something like:<div>
<br></div><div>boost_signals-mt-gd.lib</div><div>boost_signals-mt.lib</div><div><br></div><div>Now onto the results:<br><div><br></div><div><div>warning: Graph library does not contain optional GraphML reader.</div><div>note: to enable GraphML support, set EXPAT_INCLUDE and EXPAT_LIBPATH to the</div>

&gt; What&#39;s going on? For some reason I can no longer build boost. I&#39;m trying to<br>
&gt; build version 1.39 using bjam. The same command worked just fine on 1.38:<br>
&gt; D:\IT\personal\asl_editor\temp\boost_1_39_0&gt;bjam --toolset=msvc<br>
&gt; --layout=system link=static threading=multi debug release stage<br>
<br>
</div></div>In general, if you don&#39;t believe in telepathy and the like, it&#39;s best to<br>
explain:<br>
<br>
1. What you did exactly.<br>
2. What exact results you got<br>
3. How results are different from your expectation.<br>
<br>
Omitting (2), in particular, is not good idea.<br>
<br>
In this case, some telepathy might work -- you are using --layout=system.<br>
This produces names using system conventions -- more specifically, Unix<br>
system conventions -- and does not include any &#39;tags&#39; for release/debug.<br>
I recommend dropping --layout=system (and you will be able to use autolink,<br>
even).<br>
