Here is a sample of the files generated for datetime:

libboost_date_time-vc71-mt-1_37.lib
libboost_date_time-vc71-mt.lib
ibboost_date_time-vc71-mt-gd-1_37.lib
libboost_date_time-vc71-mt-gd.lib
libboost_date_time-vc71-mt-s-1_37.lib
libboost_date_time-vc71-mt-s.lib
libboost_date_time-vc71-mt-sgd-1_37.lib
libboost_date_time-vc71-mt-sgd.lib

 I did not expect to see libboost_date_time-vc71-mt.lib and the other 
non-versioned files in the folder; libboost_date_time-vc71-mt-1_37.lib and 
libboost_date_time-vc71-mt.lib appear to be the same file.

Thanks,
Dick.
