I have just installed the current version of the gcc compiler on an Apple XServe/darwin platform, and then recompiled boost using the new gcc. I have found that it is still necessary to use the 'using darwin' option. However, the new gcc does not support the -no-cpp-precomp option and I had to modify line 332 of darwin.jam before it could compile. It looks as if this is only needed for old Apple compilers, and may well be removed from the new Apple compiler http://www.vtk.org/Bug/view.php?id=6267 Perhaps darwin.jam could be changed to make its use conditional on the release of the compiler?
