And you should :-)

You really do need to link against libboost_regex_vc6_md.lib which is the
static lib for the multithreaded dynamic runtime.  Did you build using the
makefile?  If not there is a bug in the current bjam build system that
doesn't result in the correct lib names being generated (I'm still waiting
for Rene to come back from holiday for a fix to that one).
