Yes, I know. I'd like to use cygwin shell instead of cmd.exe, so I'll
keep testing ;-)

I don't get any output from jam0 when doing this. What should I expect ?

But when doing a "set | grep OS" I get

BOOST_BUILD_PATH='e:\libraries\boost_cvs\tools\build\v2\kernel'
BOOST_ROOT='e:\libraries\boost_cvs'
HOSTNAME=railsys
HOSTTYPE=i686
OS=win32
OS2LIBPATH='C:\WINNT\system32\os2\dll;'
OSTYPE=cygwin

so it seems my cygwin installation sets OS=win32.

Yours,

Jürgen
