Hi!

Oh, yes, I haven't applied this when building the bjam executable. I
did now. And I now built bjam as a 64bit executable:

export LDR_CNTRL=MAXDATA=0xA0000000_at_dsa
export OBJECT_MODE=64
export CFLAGS="-maix64"
export CC="gcc"
./build.sh cc

I figured the project has some 91k targets and 3.2k being built at once.

Ok, using the rebuild 64bit bjam from 1.49 works for me. I might try
the trunk version as well maybe next week.

Thank you both for your help on this!
