[Boost-build] compiling boost.python quickstart example under mac os x leopard

Hi,

I've downloaded boost 1_34_1, I'm trying to compile the quickstart example
located under libs/python/example/quickstart using the following command:
bjam toolset=gcc test

but the build process stops wit the following error:
gcc.link.dll ../../../../bin.v2/libs/python/build/gcc-4.0.1
/debug/libboost_python-gcc40-d-1_34_1.dylib
ld: unknown option: -R
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

What's weird is that the build system hasn't compiled any boost_python dylib
yet, so why is it trying to link it already?

My configuration is very standard, mac os x leopard, bjam installed using
darwinports.

Hope someone will be able to help...

Thanks,

Andrea
