Yes, I was aware of this and hope to work on it soon.

The meta-como-win32-4.3.3-vc7 regression tests are giving the error:

"C:\Users\Administrator\boost\main\boost\boost/config/requires_threads.hpp", 
line 29: catastrophic error #35:
           #error directive: "Threading support unavailable: it has been
           explicitly disabled with BOOST_DISABLE_THREADS"
   #  error "Threading support unavailable: it has been explicitly 
disabled with BOOST_DISABLE_THREADS"

This is because -dBOOST_DISABLE_WIN32 is being passed on the compiler's 
command line. Does anyone know why this is so?

Thanks,

Mike
