Comment(by anonymous):

 FWIW, 'bjam toolset=darwin test' still hangs for me. However, 'extending'
 and 'embedding' both compile without problems, and I can import the
 generated extension module (after moving 'libboost_python.dylib' into a
 library path.) It sounds like 'test' works on Snow Leopard, but not on
 Leopard. Given that boost.python obviously works on Leopard, this isn't a
 showstopper for me, but it would have been really great if there had been
 a note somewhere, because I all but abandoned boost.python for over a year
 because I thought it simply didn't work on OS X (and others have said the
 same).

 - OS X 10.5.8

 - Developer Tools 3.1.4

 - gcc version 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5493)

 - boost_1_43_0

 - Boost.Jam  Version 3.1.17. OS=MACOSX
