Re: [Boost-build] Using linkflags in (usage) requirements bug?

I think the problem is specific for the darwin toolset. I could solve the
problem by adding $(USER_OPTIONS) to the command used in:

actions link bind LIBRARIES

actions link.ddl bind LIBRARIES

The changes are trivial, but in good order I have attached a patch for
darwin.jam.

Best regards,
