 Hi all,
 I need the boost libraries built using the stdcall convention, as opposed
 to the cdecl convention I believe the pre-compiled libraries are built on.
 I have been doing so using Boost.Build using the CXXFLAGS=\Gz option.
 Unfortunately, it seems that the library naming doesn't cater for this
 variation (unlike release/debug, 32/64, etc.), just as it is not
 identified in config/auto_link.hpp.
 Is there a reason behind that, or am I missing something? It's a long
 shot, but should I assume this is not something considered for addition?
 Any guidance on how best to build, name, identify and link the boost
 libraries using a different calling convention than cdecl would much
 appreciated.
