Description

In reply to my my question (excerpt here): How can I specify my cross-compiler/archiver when building?

Vladimir Prus' answer and suggestion are:

To your user-config.jam, add the following: using gcc : : path-to-g++ : <archiver>path-to-ar ;

We probably should auto-detect this case and don't require explicit specification. Can you file an issue at http://zigzag.cs.msu.su/boost.build so that I don't forget to fix it?

Done...
