Thank you so much!  This seems to have built everything now...I'll add
this to our internal documentation.

Can I get a pointer on the correct way to install these?  "make install"
doesn't seem to know about them.  Can I just copy them into the lib
directory?  Anything else involved?

Thanks again!

To build everything use
bjam --build-type=complete ...
To build specific libraries use combinations of the following:
debug release link=static,shared runtime-link=static,shared 
threading=single,multi
For example
  bjam release link=static,shared threading=single ...
builds two libraries,
* single threaded release static lib
* single threaded release dynamic lib
In Christ,
