Is it possible to suppress generation of the unversioned .lib file when building on Windows?

HTH.
The default build on windows builds both versioned *and* unversioned libs (at least for 1.34.0 - can't remember back to 1.33.1 building). If specifying "--layout=versioned" on the bjam command line results in *only* versioned libs then the bjam 'default' is actually something else, no? -Chris
