   Status:  new                  |   Milestone:  To Be Determined
Component:  Building Boost       |     Version:  Boost 1.51.0    
 Severity:  Problem              |    Keywords:                  
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
 The qcc.jam file is apparently intended for building on a QNX OS hosted
 target.  It is common for the QNX source to be cross compiled on MS
 Windows and the default archive utility is not available.  Would you
 please add a comment and alternate solution around line 220 like the
 following.  This would probably save new Boost users from having to track
 down a solution to this in the future.

 #  Modify archive command for cross-compiling for QNX NTO using a MS
 Windows hosted environment (x86 target used as example).
 #    ntox86-ar rc "$(<)" "$(>)"
