Hello, All!

I try build Boost.Puthon use MinGW

g++ (GCC) 3.3.1 (mingw special 20030804-1)

command line:
cd C:\Lang\Projects\boost\libs\python\build\
bjam -sTOOLS=mingw -s"PYTHON_ROOT=C:\Lang\Python" -s"PYTHON_VERSION=2.3"

output:
...found 1165 targets...
...updating 19 targets...
gcc-C++-action
..\..\..\bin\boost\libs\python\build\boost_python.dll\mingw\debug\slice.obj
In file included from C:/Lang/Projects/boost/libs/python/src/slice.cpp:1:

bj"
"C:\Lang\Projects\boost\libs\python\build\../src/slice.cpp"

[i skip other]

After change slice.hpp line19-30:
class BOOST_PYTHON_DECL slice : public object
{
 private:
    // Helper function to work around bugs in MSVC 6
    //BOOST_PYTHON_DECL
    static object new_slice(PyObject*, PyObject*, PyObject*);

 public:
 // Equivalent to slice(::)
 //BOOST_PYTHON_DECL
 slice();

slice.cpp compile ok.

But I recive bjam output:
...found 1165 targets...
...updating 19 targets...
gcc-C++-action

on_debug.lib

I build static version using command:
cd C:\Lang\Projects\boost\libs\python\build\
bjam -sTOOLS=mingw -s"PYTHON_ROOT=C:\Lang\ActiveState\Python" -s"PYTHON_VERS
ION=2.3" -s"BUILD=debug release" lib

Help my build Boost.Python library dynamic version using MinGW
