Subject: [Boost-users] gcc problems on mac os 10.6...

I would like to install the python headers from boost, but after
successfully (?) building under mac os 1.5, I get this error when trying to
build boost on mac os 10.6 machines (tried on two machines with the same
result)

./bootstrap.sh doesn't have problems
./bjam give me all kinds of errors

The kind of errors I get :

...failed darwin.compile.c++
bin.v2/libs/python/build/darwin-4.2.1/release/threading-multi/numeric.o...
darwin.compile.c++
bin.v2/libs/python/build/darwin-4.2.1/release/threading-multi/list.o

error: #error "LONG_BIT definition appears wrong for platform (bad gcc/glibc
config?)."

On the mac os 10.5 machine
gcc version 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5490)

On the mac os 10.6 machines
gcc version 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5490)
gcc version 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646) (dot 1)

Python is 2.5.4 for all and located in /Library/Frameworks

are there any options I have to use with bootstrap.sh or bjam?
