Hi Volodya,

now it works fine.

It is the nighly build version I downloaded yesterday from the
BBv2 homepage: http://boost.org/boost-build2/boost-build.zip.

I got the following error message with [ glob src/*.cxx ]

*** argument error

set : sources + )

However, I in particular am fine with [ glob src *.cxx ].

Thanks,

Johannes
