Hi,

2 things while upgrading from 1.25 to 1.28 :

-I was trying to build the regex library (1.28.0) with msvc-stlport
 configuration. 

     vc6.bat
     set STLPORT_PATH="c:\Mes Documents\STLport-4.5.3"
     nmake -fvc6-stlport.mak

 will fail. i had to erase some lines in vc6-stlport.mak because 
 i guess it does not support space in path. i do the install by
 hand too.

 unless that, it work fine for me.
 
-I was just wondering why the boost build system (jam) makes the
 regex library if i need to rebuild them with nmake whereas i 
 specify the good target os for both ?
