Thanks, indeed.

For toolset=darwin-4.0 or -4.2. it works seamlessly, but I noticed 
amending the configuration is not even necessary.

I replaced the using line by

  using gcc : 4.4 : "/sw/lib/gcc4.4/bin/g++" ;

and invoked

  sudo bjam toolset=gcc-4.4

but it yields errors (see below) and I'm not sure how to interpret them. 
Any suggestion?
