Hi!

I'm trying to build boost-1.31.0 on a freshly installed cygwin and I 
get a segmentation fault in about 2 seconds (nothing compiled, no
directory created) 

$ uname -srv
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 1.5.10(0.116/4/2) 2004-05-25 22:07

$ bjam -v | head -1
Boost.Jam Version 3.1.10. OS=CYGWIN.

$g++ --version | head -1
g++ (GCC) 3.3.3 (cygwin special)

$ tar xvfj boost_1_31_0.tar.gz
$ cd boost_1_31_0
$ bjam -sTOOLS=gcc stage
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I tried another box with the same version of cygwin, and got a
segfault too. However, on another box with an older cygwin install,
everything run just fine:

$ uname -srv
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 1.5.7(0.109/3/2) 2004-01-30 19:32

$ bjam -v | head -1
Boost.Jam Version 3.1.10. OS=CYGWIN.

$g++ --version | head -1
g++ (GCC) 3.3.1 (cygming special)

$ cd boost_1_31_0
$ bjam -sTOOLS=gcc stage

several coffees later, the build succeded.

Any ideas ?
