I saw bjam got segmentation fault with bjam 3.1.10 + boost 1.32 + gcc

+ fedora 2. After playing it around on different environment, I found that I can always reproduce the problem when I set environment variable $TOP for my own development CVS. Once I removed the environment variable $TOP ( I was using bash shell: run "unset TOP" ), the problem is gone. I hope this might help. - Junyi Sun

I am trying to compile boost 1.32.0 on MacOSX 10.3.8 and getting a Segmentation Fault immediately from bjam immediately. I'm using gcc 3.3. bjam is crashing with a EXC_BAD_ADDRESS exception. I compiled bjam from

3.3.3 the

boost distribution but it has the same behavior. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Seems like I'm doing somehthing dumb. Also, are binaries available via fink? I seached with fink 0.71 but couldn't find anything. Thx.
