#1062: Cygwin install stage fails with combination of patches
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  mike_at_[hidden]  |        Type:  Bugs            
   Status:  new                  |   Milestone:  To Be Determined
Component:  Building Boost       |     Version:  release 1.34.0  
 Severity:  Showstopper          |    Keywords:  cygwin install  
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
 This may be fixed in the development branch, but I can't find any
 reference to it, and I can't find any way to get a copy of the latest code
 without having an account..  If someone can email me a tarball, I'd be
 happy to test it out.

 I'm using Cygwin on Windows XP with Boost 1.34.0 + the patches from these
 two tickets applied:

 http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/966

 http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/1025


 If I only have the first patch applied, all works fine (with the exception
 of not copying the DLLS).

 If I have BOTH patches applied, the install stage fails consistently
 UNLESS I use bjam to specify specific libraries using "--with-<library>".
 If I try to install everything, it fails with the following errors:

 $ make install
 ./tools/jam/src/bin.cygwinx86/bjam  --user-config=user-config.jam
 --prefix=/usr/
 local --exec-prefix=/usr/local --libdir=/usr/local/lib
 --includedir=/usr/local/include  install
 Building Boost.Regex with the optional Unicode/ICU support disabled.
 Please refer to the Boost.Regex documentation for more information
 (don't panic: this is a strictly optional feature).

 Not all Boost libraries built properly.

 I've tried both using the "configure" script + "make install" and using
 "bjam install", and both seem to fail in the same way.
