Comment (by anonymous):

 Just installed Boost for the first time and found I had this problem.
 Googled it and found this ticket. Then Googled "MASM" and found you can
 download it direct from Microsoft see http://www.microsoft.com/en-

 gb/download/details.aspx?id=12654 You then need to use WinRar or 7Zip to
 extract the setup.exe from the file. Then extract the cab file from
 setup.exe. Then extract the file that starts FL_ml.... and rename it to
 ml.exe. Put it somewhere in your path then boost should build without
 errors.
