[Boost-users] Boost 1.37.0 and Borland C++ Builder 5 (compiler version 5.5/5.5.1)

Hello,

I'm upgrading project which was originally developed using Borland C++ 
Builder 5. I need to do some parsing, so I thought I'd use Boost Regex. 
However, building regex with Borland C++ 5.5 (and 5.5.1) is an issue.
There is no bcb5.mak included, so I use bjam:
C:\boost_1_37_0\libs\regex\bjam --toolset=borland-5.5 (I tried 
--toolset=borland also)
When I hit enter the only things I get are compiler errors...

Is there anybody who forced BCC 5.5/5.5.1 to play with Boost/Regex?

Thanks,
