   What do you mean by 'does nothing'?

   Could you post the exact output?

   Also, the following options may provide you with additional information:
   -d+2 ... displays the exact commands executed.
   --debug-building ... displays the exact property set for each built 
target.
   --debug-configuration ... displays details related to different 
toolsets used for your build.

   Have you tried running a build for only a specific library? E.g. use 
the --with-system option and see if that builds? Or tried builing a 
simple .exe from a 'int main() {}' .cpp file using Boost Build?

   Hope this helps.

   Best regards,
