In reply to Steve Watanabe: Thanks. I'd already tried bjam, but what I figured out is that a link error: /usr/bin/ld: unknown flag: --start-group is preventing the executable from being built, so the tests don't run. So instead I link the .o file that it was built by bjam, run it, and it runs my tests. This ought to just work. I presume that you are using gcc. What OS? I am using gcc 4.0.1 on Mac OSX10.4 (PPC). I attempted to install gcc4.3.2, and it failed, even though I added the libraries it stated it was dependent upon. Apple only provides binaries past gcc4.0 for 10.5, so I'm inclined to believe that 10.4 is missing necessary support in the OS for the latest gcc libraries.
Ok. This is an annoying problem with Boost.Build that keeps coming up. Add toolset=darwin and it ought to work. Also, did you get a message like this: warning: No toolsets are configured. warning: configuring default toolset "gcc" ... ? If so, the default toolset should be darwin--which is an easy fix.
