139	Auto-detect archiver when compiler path is explicitly specified	b.reid@…	somebody	"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?
