boost auto_link error when using layout=system ?

Hello all i had found in 1.34.1, that when i build boost under windows with visual studio 2005 with layout=system, it still try to use versioned file name for library, instead of stripping compiler and version information. I think, that this is error and should be fixed Should i create ticket for it? -- With best wishes, Alex Ott, MBA http://alexott.blogspot.com/ http://alexott-ru.blogspot.com/ http://content-filtering.blogspot.com/ http://xtalk.msk.su/~ott/

By all means, but I'm not at all sure that it's fixable: leastways Boost.Build would have to rewrite the header to make it work :-( Remember also that layout=system is really designed for Linux system integrators. HTH, John.
