Hi all,

(Please CC me on all replies as I'm not subscribed to the list)

Boost 1.37, 1.55, and 1.60 all build fine for me using the same or
similar approach as below.  All using GCC 4.9.3 on Linux.

Now trying to build Boost 1.61.0 in the same environment and getting the
following error (exact commands & output follow):

nick_at_nimble ~/temp2/dev/3rdParty/Boost/boost_1_61_0 $ ./b2
/home/nick/temp2/dev/3rdParty/Boost/boost_1_61_0/tools/build/src/build/feature.jam:494: in feature.validate-value-string from module feature
error: "none" is not a known value of feature <optimization>
error: legal values: "off" "speed" "space"

I've tried running b2 with various combinations of the following but all
have the same result:
./b2 --prefix=/home/nick/temp2/dev/3rdParty/build32 --layout=versioned
--with-regex variant=debug,release link=static,shared threading=multi
address-model=32 install

Here are the individual commands & output:

nick_at_nimble ~/temp2/dev/3rdParty/Boost $ tar xjf ./boost_1_61_0.tar.bz2 
nick_at_nimble ~/temp2/dev/3rdParty/Boost $ cd ./boost_1_61_0
nick_at_nimble ~/temp2/dev/3rdParty/Boost/boost_1_61_0 $ ./bootstrap.sh
