There are again a lot of warnings (gcc-4.3.2) which can easily be avoided. The first one: libs/program_options/src/options_description.cpp|74| warning: suggest explicit braces to avoid ambiguous 'else'
Since I learned in the past that such patches are often ignored I do not send a patch. It's also trivially reproducable for everyone (as gcc is free).

Not sure if anyone cares but:
I'm seeing this as well on FreeBSD-7.0-amd64 machine I have. There are a lot of warnings (mostly string casting which newer more stricter gcc's don't like).
The good news is other than a small patch to libs/regex/build/Jamfile.v2 (adding /usr/local/lib to search path) and the setting of LD_LIBRARY_PATH within gcc.jam, beta1 built successfully on my FreeBSD machine!
Those two changes, I believe, are related and should be fixed in the Boost.Build system. Please open a Trac ticket for them at http://svn.boost.org
Dave, way AHEAD of you, opened up both with patches attached: Its 2438 and 2437 I believe. They aren't exactly related though. IF I can get these patches and the patch/bug I filed regarding the execution_monitor.ipp, boost should compile out of the box on FreeBSD 6.x-CURRENT with ease! :D -aps
