Hello David,

Unfortunately your suggestion/ suspicion didn't solve the problem :-(
- I'm attaching the build log again.

Regards,

Viktor Ransmayr

PS: At the moment I only have the MinGW development environment on my
     laptop, so I'm not in a position to choose. - Nevertheless if no
     fix can be found could I use the binary bjam executable from
     SF ?
