[boost] regex - linking problem

Dear All,

I have a problem linking with regex that I couldn't resolve - would greatly 
appreciate if anyone could give me a hint.
I followed the discussion threads regarding similar problems and got forward 
with resolving other issues, however this final single problem I could not 
resolve:

error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "void __cdecl 
boost::re_detail::raise_runtime_error(class _STL::runtime_error const &)" 
(?raise_runtime_error_at_re_detail_at_boost@@YAXABVruntime_error@_STL@@@Z)

My environment:
o   Windows XP
o   Microsoft DevStudio - Visual C++ 6, Service pack 6
o   I am building my DLL, which will use boost::regex as (an additional) DLL
o   My build flags - Multithreaded dll (more info is avail if needed)
o   I am using stlport (which is located on my environment under 
'...\VC98\Include\stlport\...')
o   I include <boost/regex.hpp> and using 'boost::wregex', 'boost::wcmatch', 
'boost::regex_search', etc
o   I added the next to 'user.hpp':
    #define	BOOST_REGEX_NO_W32
    #define	BOOST_REGEX_NO_LIB
o	I am adding boost library to my linking process with the next pragma 
statement:
        #ifdef	_DEBUG
                #pragma comment(lib, "<...the path...>\\boost_regex-vc6-mt-gdp-1_33")
        #else
                #pragma comment(lib, "<...the path...>\\boost_regex-vc6-mt-p-1_33")
        #endif	//	_DEBUG

boost::regex build:
o   I use BJame.exe to build boost
o   I call 'VCVars32.bat' before all
o   I set the next environment variables before calling BJam:
    *   VISUALC=<..the path to 'VC98'...>
        *   INCLUDE=%STLPORT_PATH%;%INCLUDE%
o   Build line:
        BJam.exe -a -sTOOLS=MSVC-STLPORT --with-regex

...after all this: the linker error (unresolved 'raise_runtime_error' as 
written above)

M A N Y   T H A N K S ! ! !
