7262	Boost.Context fails to build using MinGW	anonymous	olli	"Boost.Context (1.51.0) fails to build using MinGW on Windows 7 Pro 32-bit. Here's what I did:

1. Ran ""bootstrap.bat gcc"". Completed successfully.
2. Invoked bjam using the following command line:


{{{
bjam -d+2 -j4 -q variant=debug,release link=static threading=multi toolset=gcc runtime-link=shared cxxflags=""-D__int64=\""long long int\"" -DBOOST_REGEX_MATCH_EXTRA "" -sICU_PATH=C:/Tools/ICU/49.1.1/MinGW -sICU_LINK=""-LC:/Tools/ICU/49.1.1/MinGW/lib"" linkflags=""-LC:/Tools/ICU/49.1.1/MinGW/lib -lsicuuc -lsicuin -lsicudt""
}}}

The output I get is

The output only contains the errors about Boost.Context because I attempted to rebuild using the same command line.
