Hello,

I have the same problem, with boost 1.34, but could not understand your
answer: I did not find what you call the 'requirements' section in
boost_root/Jamfile. The closest I could find is:

project boost
    : requirements <include>.
      # disable auto-linking for all targets here,
      # primarily because it caused troubles with V2
      <define>BOOST_ALL_NO_LIB=1
      # Used to encode variant in target name. See the
      # 'tag' rule below.
      <tag>@$(__name__).tag
      <conditional>@handle-static-runtime
           
    : usage-requirements <include>.
    : build-dir bin.v2
    : default-build $(default-build)
    ;

Should I add it there ? Morever, in the line you specify, I cannot see where
you specify that the flag should not be used for debug builds.

Finally, I'm a little bit nervous in modifying those kind of files...
Couldn't such an option be set by modifying user-config.jam ? The best I
could find was adding the following line in this file:
using msvc : : : <compileflags>-D_SECURE_SCL=0 ;

But I could not find a way to set a different value depending on the
variant. Currently, I modify this file before recompiling.

Best regards,
