I've downloaded the zip and successfully built all libraries with the
vc-7_1 toolset. When I try the same with MinGW however, build works only
partially. .obj files seem to be compiled ok, linking them together to
.lib files fails intermittenly.

I'm using WinXP SP2, with Dev-C++ 4.9.9.0 (comes with gcc 3.3.1)
installed and use the following command line:

bjam "-sTOOLS=mingw" "-sMINGW_ROOT_DIRECTORY=C:\Program Files\Dev-Cpp"
1>log.txt 2>error.txt

See attached log.txt and error.txt (BTW: Is there any way to redirect
both log and error to the same file?). What I find especially disturbing
are the "Program: Files\Dev-Cpp\bin\g++: No such file or directory"
messages (Note the colon after Program).

As mentioned, not all link actions fail. Up to the point where I
cancelled the build, the following libraries were linked correctly:

libboost_date_time-mgw-1_32.lib
libboost_date_time-mgw-d-1_32.lib
libboost_date_time-mgw-mt-1_32.lib
libboost_date_time-mgw-mt-d-1_32.lib
libboost_date_time-mgw-mt-s-1_32.lib
libboost_date_time-mgw-mt-sd-1_32.lib
libboost_date_time-mgw-s-1_32.lib
libboost_date_time-mgw-sd-1_32.lib
libboost_filesystem-mgw-d-1_32.lib
libboost_filesystem-mgw-mt-d-1_32.lib
libboost_filesystem-mgw-mt-sd-1_32.lib
libboost_filesystem-mgw-s-1_32.lib
libboost_filesystem-mgw-sd-1_32.lib

Does anyone else have this behavior? Are there any workarounds?

Thanks & Regards,
