Not sure if I'm writing to the correct place. Please feel free to correct me and point the right one.

Building boost 1.48 on Win7 for MSVC.2008 I discover a strange behavior: sgd versions are not get built if you request them explicitly. When I specify the following command:

b2.exe --stagedir=./ --build-dir=/tmp --toolset=msvc-9.0 threading=multi --link=static --runtime-link=static --with-thread

I expect to get the following libraries:

But in fact I get:

Setting "--runtime-link=shared" results in the exactly the same set of output libraries which makes me believe this flag is just ignored.

I know the workaround and here is it:

b2.exe --stagedir=./ --build-dir=/tmp --toolset=msvc-9.0 --with-thread --build-type=complete

This way I get all the libraries built including the sgd versions. Though, I'd say this workaround is kind of expensive. Especially for continues build systems.
