 > This is confusing. I'm using the MSYS unix shell, why in hell i should
 use a batch file? Btw the batch program is working, after some path
 definitions (i.e. GCC), which are normally not requried if you use MSYS in
 handshake with MinGW ...

 The boost build doesn't support the MSYS shell, you need to use cmd.exe
 instead for the purpose of compiling.
