What is the content of:

        /home/YegorYefremov/MyProjects/versioned/buildroot/output/build/boost-1.49.0/user-config.jam

and how was that file created? The above error claims that the file is tring to pass a huge list
for 'version' parameter, and this is not allowed. You need to come up with a single string that
identifies compiler version.
