I just tried it myself and experience no problem. Could you give more 
information about the problem you experience.

There is a small glitch though because of the <status> stuff but if you 
first go to the boost/libs/regex/build directory and launch your `jam 
-sBOOST_ROOT=<your boost-root>` there you should'nt have any problem.
