I blew away bin.v2/libs/math, so that the math library would rebuild.  
Then I ran this command:

bin/bjam --user-config=user-config.LINUX_AMDF7 --debug-configuration --without-python threading=multi instruction-set=opteron address-model=64 variant=release link=static,shared --stagedir=stageF7 stage | & tee build.release.math.log

I am attaching the first part of the log, showing the messages from the 
first gcc.compile.c++.pch and gcc.compile.c++ compilations.
