[Boost-build] Unable to build Boost 1.48.0 with MinGW-W64

I'm running into a build problem with the latest release of Boost (1.48.0) where it complains about duplicate actual and virtual targets.  Real quickly, this here is a summary of the build process that I've successfully used on previous releases (most recently 1.47.0):

1. C:\TEMP\boost_1_48_0\tools\build\v2\engine>build.bat mingw --toolset-root=c:\mingw64-i686-20110207
2. C:\TEMP\boost_1_48_0>bootstrap.bat mingw --toolset-root=c:\mingw64-i686-20110207 --with-python-root=C:\Python26
3. Update python.jam (https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/3625)
4. bjam.exe --toolset=gcc --build-type=complete --build-dir=C:\TEMP\boost_bld\build --stagedir=C:\TEMP\boost_bld\stage --address-model=64 define=BOOST_USE_WINDOWS_H define=MS_WIN64 threadapi=win32 target-os=windows stage

It doesn't seem to be one particular library that's causing the problems.  I'm providing the build output below and you can see it bombs out on test.  If I add --without-test to the bjam invocation, a similar problem occurs with the exception library.  Oddly, if I simply build either test or exception individually, both build fine.
