I'm working on linux with gcc.
Initially I installed Boost with normal settings with gcc.make file, from 
/app/home/alahane1/boost_1_37_0/libs/regex/build 

which gave those linking errors. Then I tried

 bjam -sTOOLS=gcc-stlport  --toolset=gcc -sstdlib=stlport --with-regex
--build-type=complete -a stage

with proper include and lib paths given in file 'user-config.jam' as
follows:

-----------------------------------------------------

Still couldn't get rid of those errors. I'm not confident that this step
which I did, was it correct or was there some small thing missing. But even
bjam didnt give any error message. Does it mean whatever I did is right? But
then it also didnt produce any library with  '-p'.
