I noted how I built boost 1.54 with libstrc++ step-by-step. Hope that helps:

$ mkdir ~/boost-stdc++-install
$ cd ~/boost-stdc++-install
$ wget
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/boost/boost/1.54.0/boost_1_54_0.tar.bz2
$ tar xfj boost_1_54_0.tar.bz2
$ cd boost_1_54_0
$ mkdir -p tmp/build
$ mkdir stage

$ cd tools/build/v2/
$ ./bootstrap.sh
$ cd ~/boost-stdc++-install/boost_1_54_0
$ cd ~/boost-stdc++-install/boost_1_54_0
$ tools/build/v2/b2 \
 --build-dir=`pwd`/tmp/build/ \
 --stagedir=`pwd`/tmp/stage/ \
 --buildid=libstdc++ \
 --layout=tagged -j24 \
 toolset=clang \
 cxxflags="-ftemplate-depth=999 -stdlib=libstdc++" \
 linkflags="-stdlib=libstdc++" \
 define=BOOST_SYSTEM_NO_DEPRECATED stage
