strange behaviour at setup on windows2000
I had the following trouble setting up boost 1.29.0 on windows 2000 (using vc7, but that's not the point) the first thing bjam did (the version downloaded from sourceforge) was to erase all the files and folders in tools\ so that no build could be performed... setting those files to read-only was enough but that's an unexpected behaviour.

I am 100% positive !!! I ran the whole installation three times, and every time it was the same. I have been using boost under linux for a while, I expected it to be straigthforward to use on windows too... it is, except for this. I wouldn't have mailed if I was not sure.
I just thought it was worth reporting it, although I didn't find the reason it occured ... David Abrahams wrote:
