Oops. That should be a check on target-os. I don't know jamfile syntax well enough to fix that though --- I don't think <target-os> is available at that point.
Anyway, that's the "default API" selection: threadapi=pthread can override that.
So: can we try target-os=cygwin threadapi=pthread?

Thanks! That succeeds for now. Ok, so a followup question is, for my (local) boost patch file, what modifications should I make? My goal is to restore the state of affairs to that of 1.34.1: the user didn't need to make any explicit mention of the threadapi or target-os on the command line or in the user-config.jam. Or will I need patches to both the boost thread Jamfile.v2 and the boost build system to restore auto-detection? - Mat
