 Hi,

 when building boost on MSVC with SAFESEH (which is implicit on x64-builds)
 I get linking problems, since the MASM-compiler does not have the
 "safeseh" option on its command line. There is also a thread on boost/dev
 about this issue

 http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/context-msvc-SAFESEH-td4652245.html


 I could solve it by adding safeseh in the two files mentioned here:

 in boost_1_56_0\libs\context\build\Jamfile.v2:

 actions masm
 {
      ml /safeseh /c /Fo"$(<)" "$(>)"
 }

 in boost_1_56_0\tools\build\src\tools\msvc.jam:

         local default-assembler-i386 = "ml -coff -safeseh" ;


 Could someone please add a boost-build-option to control the safeseh-
 setting.

 Thanks

 Tobias
