[Boost-users] Building on OS X

So, I've installed Xcode 3.0, followed by Xcode 3.1.2. gcc is
defaulting to 4.0, which builds Boost fine (using the configure & make
install OR bjam routes).

However, I would like to build boost with gcc 4.2, as installed with
Xcode 3.1.2 - I've not managed to find the correct incantation yet to
persuade Boost to use 4.2 vs 4.0 - help!!!!

I guess I could just alter the gcc and g++ soft links in /usr/bin, but
that seems...wrong. Assistance would be greatly appreciated.

TIA!!!
