[Boost-users] Problems compiling boost.python with Boost 1.31.0

I'm trying to compile boost.python from Boost 1.31.0 on Tru64 5.1 with
Compaq C++ V6.5-033.

Python has been built like this:

./configure --with-cxx=cxx --prefix=/opt --exec-prefix=/opt/exec/OSF1-V5.1-a
lpha --without-gcc

The command line used to build boost.python looks like this:

    bjam -sTOOLS=tru64cxx65 -sPYTHON_ROOT="/opt" -sPYTHON_VERSION="2.3"
stage

When build boost.python I get the following error message:

tru64cxx65-C++-action
bin/boost/libs/python/build/libboost_python.so/tru64cxx65/debug/numeric.o
cxx: Error: /net/camos/opt/include/python2.3/Python.h, line 8: #5 could not
          open source file "pyconfig.h"
#include "pyconfig.h"
---------------------^

It looks like the exec prefix is not taken into account because the file is
located here:

    /opt/exec/OSF1-V5.1-alpha/include/python2.3/pyconfig.h

Is this not supported by the current boost build process or is there any
option I missed? Or is there anything else I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Markus
