[boost] [signals2] missing Jamfile and compile errors with VC8

10 Mar 2010

      I was surprised to not find a Jamfile in the libs/signals2/example 
directory. Please find an example below.

The reason I headed toward the examples is that I'm having trouble with 
this type of line and VC8:

    typedef boost::signals2::signal<void ()>  signal_t;

In fact doc_view_acm.cpp will not compile because of it.

disconnect_and_block.cpp also has compilation errors.

Results verified in 1.41 and 1.42 with VC8 and gcc 4.3.2
