Thanks! That succeeds for now. Ok, so a followup question is, for my
(local) boost patch file, what modifications should I make? My goal is
to restore the state of affairs to that of 1.34.1: the user didn't
need to make any explicit mention of the threadapi or target-os on the
command line or in the user-config.jam. Or will I need patches to both
the boost thread Jamfile.v2 and the boost build system to restore
auto-detection?
