RE: [Boost-users] building boost on vc7.1 with stlport

After poking atound in the regex regression test I found it doesn't link
(build) cause it can't find "libboost_regex-vc71-s-1_31.lib". And it's
right, I don't have that file... Does the main build process 'forget' to
build part of the library?
