But I thought you used the makefile and not bjam?  The makefile doesn't
currently validate STLPORT_PATH.

All I can say is "it works for me".  Did you try the sample project I sent
you?

BTW I should just add that VC7.1+STLPort is one of my regular regression
tests on my machine here, and of course, you can always just add the source
directly to your project in the IDE and define BOOST_REGEX_NO_LIB to
suppress the auto-link code.
