Thomas,
The issue I reported to you (attached below) persists in RC2. Also, all of the references to the Boost version in the Getting Started docs refer to 1_34_0.

Thomas,
In trying out the release candidate, I noticed a problem with the batch file that builds the bjam executable on windows. If I execute build.bat from the tools\jam\src directory, I get an error:
--------------------------------------------------------------------- T:\boost-1_34_1\boost\tools\jam\src>.\build.bat Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 x86 tools. \Microsoft was unexpected at this time. ---------------------------------------------------------------------
However, if I specify msvc, things work fine:
--------------------------------------------------------------------- T:\boost-1_34_1\boost\tools\jam\src>.\build.bat msvc ### ### Using 'msvc' toolset. ###
T:\boost-1_34_1\boost\tools\jam\src>rd /S /Q bootstrap
T:\boost-1_34_1\boost\tools\jam\src>md bootstrap
... and so on... ---------------------------------------------------------------------
This problem is fixed in CVS head.
Jon
