Comment (by Leo Carreon <lcarreon@…>):

 Hi,

 I have just looked into my Boost 1.47.0 build logs and here is some clue
 as to why the above problem is happening.  Below is an extract of the
 message I found in my Boost 1.47.0 build log:

    msvc.link.dll bin.v2\libs\iostreams\build\bzip2\msvc-10.0\release
 \address-model-32\threading-multi\boost_bzip2-vc100-mt-1_47.dll

    c:\bzip2-1.0.6\libbz2.def(2) : warning LNK4017: DESCRIPTION statement
 not supported for the target platform; ignored
    Creating library bin.v2\libs\iostreams\build\bzip2\msvc-10.0\release
 \address-model-32\threading-multi\boost_bzip2-vc100-mt-1_47.lib and object
 bin.v2\libs\iostreams\build\bzip2\msvc-10.0\release\address-model-32
 \threading-multi\boost_bzip2-vc100-mt-1_47.exp

    boost_bzip2-vc100-mt-1_47.exp : warning LNK4070: /OUT:LIBBZ2.dll
 directive in .EXP differs from output filename
 'bin.v2\libs\iostreams\build\bzip2\msvc-10.0\release\address-model-32
 \threading-multi\boost_bzip2-vc100-mt-1_47.dll'; ignoring directive

 It seems that the problem is due to a conflict in the contents of the
 BZIP2 .def file and the .exp file being used by the Boost build.

 I hope this information helps resolve this issue.

 Kind regards,

 Leo
