Yes. For the header libraries you need to do nothing, for others you must invoke bjam with "address-model=64". Can someone with commit privs update the docs for this? -- Cory Nelson
I use it on Red Hat 4 64 bits. I did not know about address-model option. What is it suppose to do if I forget it? just slower or buggy code?

That depends on how your 64-bit linux is set up. If you *only* have the 64-bit compilers on your Redhat installation then you will have used 64-bit gcc and linked to 64-bit C/C++ runtime libraries regardless of the address model you used, and you should be fine. From memory RHEL 5 comes with only a 64-bit compiler installation, you have to specifically ask to install the 32-bit compilers, and you have to specifically switch to them in your config before it will use them.
