As always, the release managers would appreciate it if you download

the archive of your choice and give building it a try. Please report

both success and failure, and anything else that is noteworthy.

Thanks!

There were numerous build errors on windows for all versions of visual studio.

They seem to all be around the fiber library, for example:

compile-c-c++ bin.v2\libs\fiber\build\msvc-8.0\release\address-model-64\link-static\threading-multi\algo\algorithm.obj
algorithm.cpp
.\boost/fiber/algo/algorithm.hpp(10) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'chrono': No such file or directory
