Hi,

Due to the requirements of another library I have to use, I need to build
Boost 1.55.0 on my Mac 10.8 system using the libstdc++ STL library, rather
then libc++. I've now got myself royally confused with the build
configuration process, as to where I specify toolsets and other options to
achieve what I need. I'm failing with:

Cd /users/tim/developer/libraries/boost_1_55_0
./b2 clean
sudo sh bootstrap.sh macosx-version=10.8 macosx-version-min=10.7
architecture=combined threading=multi link=static address-model=32_64
./b2 toolset=clang -std=c++11 cxxflags="-stdlib=libstdc++"
linkflags="-stdlib=libstdc++"

I don't actually need the c++11 support.

Can anybody advise, please?

Best wishes.
Tim Burgess
