Comment (by Jim Bell <jim@…>):

 Notice, too, the command-line [http://tinyurl.com/2w836hp here]:
 ----
 {{{"['bjam', '-sBOOST_BUILD_PATH="F:\\tmp\\boost-
 MinGW-32\\trunk\\boost\\tools\\build\\v2\\test/.."', '-d0', '--quiet',
 'toolset=gcc-mingw-4.3.3', '--test-config="F:\\tmp\\boost-
 MinGW-32\\trunk\\boost\\tools\\build\\v2\\test\\test-config.jam"',
 '--ignore-toolset-requirements']" returned 1}}}
 ----

 It's passing in {{{gcc-mingw-4.3.3}}} which doesn't exactly match anything
 on the error message on line 106.


 I'm submitting a patch for build-system.jam that filters out the '-mingw'
 explicitly. You might not like it, but it does get past line 106.
