[boost] Comeau status/advice?

I read through the archives for awhile and did some tests with bjam 
trying to build boost with the latest Comeau compiler (433b8) with VC 
7.1 back end. I tried "-sTOOLS=como" and "-sTOOLS=como-win32". The 
former didn't work at all (bad option -OO) and the latter produced 
quite a few errors in regex, signals, data, etc. What I'd really like 
to do is build for como43x/VC7.1 under cygwin, but I'd settle for it 
working under the NT shell. Before I spend much more time on this I 
wanted to ask if anyone has already succeeded at it. In particular, 
the metacomm regression results seem quite a bit better than what I am 
getting. Any advice?

Thanks,
Mat
