Why do you want to build bjam? If it is to build boost, it is not necessary, download the boost_1_34_1.tar.bz2 file, untar it and execute the following command which will build bjam automatically: $ configure --without-icu --prefix=/your/installation/path Then you are ready to build boost apart from some details that I can give you if you need.

What is the recommended way to build bjam on cygwin? The documentation didn't seem to specify anything unusual about a cygwin build, but trying

sh ./build.sh

produces the following output:

$ sh ./build.sh ./build.sh: line 2: $'\r': command not found ./build.sh: line 6: $'\r': command not found ./build.sh: line 9: $'\r': command not found ./build.sh: line 12: syntax error near unexpected token `$'\r'' '/build.sh: line 12: `echo_run ()

I am not that familiar with Cygwin, am I doing something wrong?
