Hi Vladmir, thanks for your response.

Since I am using Dev-C++ 4.9.9.2, which I believe uses gcc version 3.4.2, I
used the command 

bjam --toolset=gcc-3.4.2 stage --with-thread 

today, as per the instructions here: 
http://boost.org/doc/html/thread/build.html#thread.build
(I only require the thread libraries)

Initially I recieve about 20 or 30 lines of the following error:

warning: Unable to construct ./stage-unversioned

After this I get many errors, such as:

...failed gcc.compile.c++
bin.v2\libs\thread\build\gcc-3.4.2\release\link-static\runtime-link-static\threading-multi\xtime.o...

...skipped
<pbin.v2\libs\thread\build\gcc-3.4.2\release\link-static\runtime-link-static\threading-multi>libboost_thread-gcc34-mt-s-1_34_1.a(clean)
for lack of
<pbin.v2\libs\thread\build\gcc-3.4.2\release\link-static\runtime-link-static\threading-multi>barrier.o

and finally

...failed updating 72 targets...
...skipped 20 targets...
...updated 13 tagets...

And still no libaries in the \stage\lib folder.
