Comment (by Kim Rasmussen <rasmussen74@…>):

 Replying to [comment:8 jurko]:
 > rasmussen74 - Could you contact me over Skype chat, my login is jurkog?
 Then I can help you debug this a bit faster...

 Sorry, Skype is no-go from here.

 > As for the bjam build compiler warning - do you know which header
 contains the strndup() function declaration on your system?

 Will check.

 > As for the original problem - could you send us lines 325-326 in your
 modules.jam file.

 The lines and surroundings are:
 {{{
 320 }
 321
 322
 323 # These rules need to be available in all modules to implement module
 loading
 324 # itself and other fundamental operations.
 325 local globalize = peek poke record-binding ;
 326 IMPORT modules : $(globalize) : : modules.$(globalize) ;
 327
 328
 329 rule __test__ ( )
 330 {
 }}}


  They should read:
 > {{{
 > local globalize = peek poke record-binding ;
 > IMPORT modules : $(globalize) : : modules.$(globalize) ;
 > }}}
 >
 > If that is so then please change those two lines to the following:
 > {{{
 > local globalize = peek poke record-binding ;
 > ECHO xxx1: /$(globalize)/ ;
 > ECHO xxx2: /modules.$(globalize)/ ;
 > IMPORT modules : $(globalize) : : modules.$(globalize) ;
 > }}}
 > and let us know what those 'xxx1:' and 'xxx2:' lines contain in your
 build output.

 Output is:
 {{{
 xxx1: /peek/
 xxx2: /modules.peek/
 }}}
