I just went through this excersise on SPARC Solaris 5.8 with Forte 
6.X . I used the Jam executable which I downloaded from a link in 
the "Install/Build" page of the Boost documentation. I believe only 
three "binary" libraries are being built -- thread, regex and python -
- the rest of Boost library is in header files. Thread and regex .a 
and .so were built with no problems and python failed, but since I 
don't plan to use it immediately I didn't invesigate. 

If you continue to have problems, you can manually build static libs 
or out of thread or regex files and link them in when building your 
executable.

Hope this helps,
Dmitry
