I don't believe this error has anything to do with Boost.Log or content of dump_sse3.cpp at all - it's emitted pretty much any time when cl.exe is passed /ZW switch (which asks to 'link' to Windows Runtime things), and these Windows Runtime things are not found in search paths.

Ok, thanks.

If this is a problem with VS environment setup scripts, has this issue been reported to MS Connect?

I don't know, and I never used MS Connect. While I can do this, it would be better if somebody actually using VS on a daily basis try same and then report the bug.

I have reached out to some people at MS, I will update as soon as we have found a solution to this problem.

So you do not need to report to MS Connect just yet.

/M

MS got back to me and verified that this is indeed a bug in the setup scripts. I will just verify the workaround and then try to come up with patch for boost.build. Without promising anything I expect a fix to be shipped with Update 1. /M
