Looks like it is completing the debug build, but then having trouble on the 
release build.

You might try it again giving -d2 as a bjam command line option. That will 
cause the commands being executed to be displayed, and you can look at them 
to see if you spot any incorrect arguments or the like.

Also, before I even tried to build the libraries directly, I'd run the 
regression tests (Jamfile in boost-root/libs/filesystem/test) first. That 
uses a debug build. It the regression tests pass, that serves as an 
important confidence test in looking at other problems; you will know the 
basic setups are in pretty good shape and that you are dealing with some 
kind of probably minor config or compiler problem.

HTH,
