I realize that not too much work has done with Comeau as far as the Boost build process is concerned but I think that something should be done to circumvent dll builds of libraries for Comeau in the normal Boost build process.
Must have missed the first mention :-\ The attached patch to tools/build/v1/boost-base.jam prevents DLLs (and other shared objects) from getting built with como. Unfortunately this will cause regression testing to break as the test Jamfiles are not designed to handle dependent targets not getting built. So if Doug thinks it's important to fix this for release I can investigate further to make testing work under these conditions.
I did not mean that the change should take place in Boost build for 1.33 but I think it needs to take place for the future for those who try to use Comeau. I will bring up other Comeau issues in the Boost build NG.
