1.40.0 beta 1 release candidates are available at http://boost.cowic.de/rc/
Before pushing the beta out to SourceForge, I'd appreciate it if several people would try the release candidate and report success or problems. It builds on Cygwin 1.5 with GCC 4.3 if I just choose release variant. --build-type=complete fails:
Why do you want --build-type=complete?
It doesn't and shouldn't matter what the answer to that question is. Whether it's because someone is not sure what they want yet so want all variant, or they generally have a need for all variant. It's a common and basic option, if you want to build all supported version pass --build-type=complete. I think it actually say something along that line in the docs. The user shouldn't have to worry about the details. That's the whole point of having a catch all option instead of making users specify each and every variant separately.

Hmm, ICU's acting up again.
John, this seems to become a recurring issue. Can you suggest some alternative behaviour I should implement?
Well, it's the same issue as before. Either, the static combination with ICU that causes the conflict should not be built, or the static combination should be built without linking to ICU.
