[Comment 2 Fabian Groffen 2005-11-03 04:56:34 UTC]

are the darwinports patches unconditional?

[Comment 3 Takenori KUBO 2005-11-03 09:59:19 UTC]

Sorry, I don't know.

[Comment 4 Fabian Groffen 2007-10-08 08:10:23 UTC]

Can you describe the errors you have?

patch-libs-test-build-Jamfile
- this patch is just suppressing errors, instead of fixing them

patch-tools-build-v1-allyourbase.jam
- this looks just plain wrong to me:
 actions HardLink
 {
     $(RM) "$(<)" 2$(NULL_OUT) $(NULL_OUT)
-    $(LN) "$(>)" "$(<)" $(NULL_OUT)
+    $(LN) -s "$(>)" "$(<)" $(NULL_OUT)
 }

a hard link is not a soft link.

boost appears to work, please re-open if it doesn't for you.
