Re: [Boost-build] I can't get boot to build on MAC OSX 10.3.9

The boost jam file has 2 versions.  The default is to use v1, would v2  
be any better for me?
Anyway, this is what my problem is all about.  Thanks in advance.

I did indeed have such a symbol, it stands for New Testament and  
supports my Biblical research by listing all the books of the New  
Testament.  I took it out and with the command

time bjam -sTOOLS=darwin install

boost now compiles except for:

I obviously have to tell boost to use threads.  The application I am  
linking does not use threads, but boost won't install the .h files  
unless everything compiles and my application's configure utility won't  
proceed without them.

Do you have another suggestion?

Thanks.
