boost 1.33.1 build error

[paulmelis]

When trying to build 1.33.1 with bjam 3.1.12 under
linux (debian, dual AMD opteron, 2.6.11 kernel) I get
the following error output (see attachment for full
output):

Building Boost.Regex with the optional Unicode/ICU
support disabled.
Please refer to the Boost.Regex documentation for more
information
(and if you don't know what ICU is then you probably
don't need it).

I've tried the following build commands:
bjam
bjam "-sTOOLS=gcc"

the results are the same...

1.33.0 builds fine on the same system
