 When building boost with MinGW-x64-4.8.1-posix-seh cc1plus.exe crashes due
 to running out of memory.  Adding the -Wl,--enable-large-address-aware
 flag solves the issue.

 I don't really understand Boost Jam to fully formulate a patch for the
 project, I just added <cxxflags>-Wl,--enable-large-address-aware to each
 of the lib objects in the Jamfile.v2 for the math library to get it to
 build.  I'm not sure how to write a test for a crashing compiler to
 determine if the flag needs to be enabled.
