Strange, I added this fix as a patch to bjam (which seems to be the one 
causing all the troubles), but still get the same build error, even 
after cleansstate both bjam-native and boost.

Maybe some cross-compiler stupidity like that it looks at the build 
machine's arch instead of the target host's?
