Take a look on this:

There are some patches for Asio and OpenVMS.


You don't really need Boost.Build as some libraries
are trivial to build manually, for example system
is just to compile one file, thread is compile
3 files, that's it.

I don't know if this patch is good for latest Asio
but it should work with 1.43.0. Some of the patches
are already in in later Boost versions but not the Asio's
one.

One thing I should recommend is to define

BOOST_ASIO_HASH_MAP_BUCKETS to some constant

(See:Â http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_49_0/doc/html/boost_asio/using.html)


To workaround a bug in DECCXX standard library where std::list::splice does
not work correctly.
