Description

Hi,

I am trying to compile boost on mac using gcc-4.8 and getting link errors. I have few reasons for this to be built with gcc and not clang which will deviate the actual issue. I have built boost with these steps:

  1. Edited user-config.jam in /tools/build/v2 and added the following

using gcc : 3.2 : /usr/local/bin/g++-3.2 ;

  1. ./bootstrap --prefix=/custom/path
  2. ./b2 -d 2 toolset=gcc-4.8

Errors are as below:
