The errors you pasted aren't related to Variant.
You shouldn't rename anything or create links manually.
Have you done the steps mentioned here:
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/TryModBoost ?

In particular:

git clone --recursive git_at_[hidden]:boostorg/boost.git modular-boost
cd modular-boost
.\bootstrap
.\b2 headers

So cloned Boost with --recursive flag and run b2 headers. Then run the
tests, e.g.:

b2 libs/geometry/test

Adam
