hello
I have built gcc-4.9.2 from source and it lives at prefix /opt/gcc-4.9.2
I want to build boost 1.57 against that toolset.
I tried generating a user-configs.jam file that points to the new
toolset, but no luck so far - when I examine the resulting boost so's
I see that they are still linking with my system standard c++
libraries in /lib64 and /usr/lib64 instead of the new ones under
/opt/gcc-4.9.2/lib64 ...

Q:Is there a concrete example of doing this out there somewhere that I
can follow?

TIA
