and no other directory; looking at the command line for other Boost libraries,
I see that they also contain -I"C:\Users\Administrator\boost\main\boost".

Mike -

This is also failing on my mini-Linux test with the same issue.

http://boost.sourceforge.net/regression-logs/cs-LinuxMandrake.html

It's interesting that if I change to the libs/thread/build directory and type
bjam the library builds, so it seems like maybe this is some new change in the
bjam system causing this.  That said in date_time there is 

      <sysinclude>$(BOOST_ROOT) 

in the Jamfile to make sure the appropriate include path is available.  I've
locally modified the thread Jamfile to include a this sysinclude and I'm
re-running the regression now.  I'll let you know...
