The version of libstdc++ that ships with GCC 3.4 has changed a number of macro names, so the boost/config/stdlib/libstdcpp3.hpp file no longer works.
I should have pointed out that before making any changes I couldn't use Boost with GCC 3.4 on FreeBSD 4.x. FreeBSD 4 does not support wchar_t (and therefore doesn't support std::wstring or std::wstreambuf) but Boost was failing to detect this because the select_stdlib_config.hpp file didn't match __GLIBCPP__ and so didn't include libstdcpp3.hpp. An alternative approach to the patches I sent would be to include the same libstdcpp3.hpp file for both __GLIBCPP__ and __GLIBCXX__ and make that file handle both cases. I don't know which is preferred. Another related patch is attached to this mail, changing the file libs/config/test/config_info.cpp so it calls PRINT_MACRO with the new GLIBCXX macro names as well as the old GLIBCPP ones. jon -- "It is seldom that liberty of any kind is lost all at once." - David Hume
