[Boost-users] No thread safe libraries built for Darwin when using release 1.33.1?

Hi All,

This has been discussed before, but I can't find an answer, so here is 
another bjam build question.

When I build the Boost libraries using the VC8 toolset on the PC, I 
create thread safe (-mt) versions of the libraries.

When I build the Boost libraries on Darwin, there are never any thread 
safe library versions built, even if I specify 
"-sBUILD=<threading>multi" on the bjam command line. I have found 
threads that discuss use of the thread safe version of the regex lib, so 
I know that it exists and gets built on some platform(s).

Why are there no thread safe libraries built for the Darwin toolset? On 
the surface, this seems like a bug, but I figure there must be some 
reasonable explanation. (Oh, please, let there be a reasonable 
explanation! :-)

Regards,
Rush
