Thread library and Win32/STLport

Hi,

I have problems linking with the following configuration:

Win32 VC 6.0 SP5
STLPort 4.5 beta 1 / 31.10.2001
Example tennis.cpp

At first I build the thread library with the recent build system 
update and the msvc-stlport-tools.jam file with these entries:

feature stlport-iostream : off ;
feature stlport-version : 4.5 ;

I used the following environment:
export TOOLS=msvc-stlport
export STLPORT_ROOT_4_5=D:/_2235/Comp/STLport/stlport
export COMMAND_FILES=1
export BUILD="debug release"
export PROJECT_ROOT=D:/Temp/boost/boost_1_25_0

From within the boost/libs/thread directory I started jam:
jam -f../../../tools/build/allyourbase.jam 

This worked pretty well. Then I created a console application with 
the MS IDE using the following settings: _STLP_NO_NEW_IOSTREAMS, 
_STLP_DEBUG and the tennis.cpp example. After adding an include of 
string the compilation doesn't fail. However, I got unresolved 
external symbols:

Linking...
main.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: 
__thiscall boost::thread::thread(class thread::function0<void,struct 
boost::empty_function_policy,struct boost::empty_function_mixin,class 
_STL::allocator<class boost::function_base> > const &)" (??
0thread_at_boost@@QAE_at_ABV?
$function0_at_XUempty_function_policy_at_boost@@Uempty_function_mixin_at_2@V?
$allocator_at_Vfunction_base_at_boost@@@_STL@@@1@@Z)
Debug/Threads.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
Error executing link.exe.

Threads.exe - 2 error(s), 0 warning(s)

The problem occurred in debug as well as in release build. I linked 
against the Debug/.../libboost_thread.lib and 
Release/.../libboost_thread.lib, respectively.

Does anyone know what the problem is and how I can solve it. Is there 
a problem with my configuration?

Yours sincerely
