Do you mean changing the "using gcc ;" line to "using gcc : : : <linker-type>darwin ;"?
No.
But doing "bjam-svn --help gcc.init" makes it seems that the "linker-type" should have been chosen by default? .. Hmm, doing that change made it work! However, I got a help message from doing "bjam-svn --help darwin.init" too. Does this mean I should add a "using darwin ;" line in my user-config.jam?
Yes. The darwin.jam support the Xcode Apple GCC compilers, which is decidedly different than the stock GNU GCC compilers on MacOSX.
Would that line complement or replace the current GCC line?
If you are using *only* Xcode only use the darwin toolset.

Hmm, I'll put a "using darwin ;" line in my user-config.jam before the GCC line.... (I also added a "using mpi ;" line before the darwin line.) Nope, didn't work. I got the same results and errors. I even got the same warnings about Graph, MPI, Regex, and.... Woah, the warnings are saying that "No toolsets are configured". Why doesn't anything work here, but it did for the Hello example? Also, I ran "bjam-svn --clean-all" (and "bjam-svn --clean") between these two runs, to try a reset. The results of the second run weren't exactly the same. The results given here give 70 targets starting to update with 52 updated at the end. The second run reduced those numbers to 43 and 25, respectively. This means that my cleaning didn't get rid of 27 old targets. Why is that? (And how do I find them to clear them out? Doing "svn status" on "boost-trunk" didn't show any added files or directories.) You know, I just thought: if almost every Mac user is going to use Apple's special GCC, and almost never create programs with a generic GCC, why doesn't the Boost.Build documentation and example configuration files FULLY support Mac OS X out of the box? I shouldn't be struggling with this over a mailing list! In fact, I added ticket #2079 over this. (I tried to look for duplicates first, but Trac's group-bugs-by-library listing crashed. It automatically let me file a bug on _that_. That bug is ticket #2078.) Could we put a darwin case within the example "user-config.jam" file? BTW, I didn't create any of the libraries in advance; I don't know if that makes a difference.
Building the Hello example after my last SVN update didn't change anything. Are you assuming that I'm actively using the 10.2 SDK? I'm not, but...
Not really assuming. It's just that we have a fixed list of SDK versions. And I didn't initially include 10.2, my mistake.
..I have all of the SDKs I can support. I'm on a Mac OS X 10.4 (PowerPC) system. The versions of XCode that my OS supports can retain multiple SDKs. Besides the native 10.4 (Universal) SDK, I also have the SDKs for 10.3.9, 10.2.8, and the super secret 10.1(. 5?) loaded. So far, I've only used the native 10.4 one. Boost.Build must be able to deal with the presence of multiple SDKs, and (generally) pick the latest; if it can't, then a bug report needs to be filed.
It does, and it automatically detects which ones you have. But you have more SDKs than is usual. I haven't heard of anyone still mucking about with 10.1. Heck, I don't even know where you can download the thing.
I saw it once on some Apple web site or mailing list. (I'm not sure that I can find it again.) It does make a good worst-case scenario, though! -- Daryle Walker Mac, Internet, and Video Game Junkie darylew AT hotmail DOT com
