Looks like you need to comment out the following in
boost/config/platform/bsd.hpp:

//
// The BSD <ctype.h> has macros only, no functions:
//
#define BOOST_NO_CTYPE_FUNCTIONS

If you're prepared to, can you:

a) Download a cvs development snapshot from www.boost-consulting.com

b) Build the latest bjam from this.

c) cd into boost-root/status and run:

    bjam test 2>&1 | tee regress.log

and let me have (by private email) the regress.log output file - that should
give me enough information to figure out what to change for the next
release.

Thanks,

John.
