Actually, what I said below is not true.
Changing INTEL_BASE_TOOLSET from 'msvc' to 'vc6' did have an affect.
Now the problems are unresolved references to what looks like a standard 
library stuff.

My understanding is that intel-win32-stlport will not use the STLport io 
library by default. Is this true? If so what do I have to do to enable 
its use? If not, what do I have to do to disable its use?

I also have problems building this library. I've attempted to use the 
provided makefile. Plus when to the trouble of creating a Jamfile for 
it. Same result.

I get a lot of errors like:

..\\stlport\ctime(32): error: namespace "std" has no member "size_t"

using _STLP_VENDOR_CSTD::size_t;
