That seems to have done the trick, thanks!
The install has worked, anyway -- I'll get around to testing it this weekend.
Thanks very, very much!

Building the Boost.Build binaries with the default system compiler
should be fine.
What you want to do is to invoke the actual building with a different toolset.
This is what you want to do:
$ cd boost_1_47_0
$ ./bootstrap.sh --prefix=/path/to/your/boost/installation
$ ./b2 toolset=clang install

these set of commands will build the b2 with gcc, but the libraries
itself with clang.

HTH,
Thomas
