Building Boost 1.31 for x64 with Visual Studio 2005

I've successfully built the 32 bit libraries for Windows, however, I cannot figure out how to build for 64 bit Windows. I'm particularly interested in using the serialization libraries. After Googling around I found a few others asking about x64, but no definitive answers. Help much appreciated.

Open the x64 command prompt and build it with: bjam "-sTOOLS=vc-8_0-amd64" The compiler didn't seem to like some convoluted wrapper code so I also had to change line 121 of libs\thread\src\once.cpp to: return InterlockedCompareExchange(dest, exch, cmp); Hope this helps.
