What are the steps to reproduce this? 64-bit msvc-14 builds seem to be OK for me,

I described my steps at the beginning of the thread:

Did you remove the b2_msvc_14.0_vcvarsall* files in your temp directory?

Got it, can confirm it's an issue when building with 32-bit bjam (which uses the cross compiler), if you build with 64-bit bjam then it uses the native 64-bit compiler, and everything is OK.

IMO we should find a way to fix this. John.

What is the status of this issue?

I don't remember anyone fixing it, and 1.59 RC2 indeed fails to compile for me, so the problem persists. For the reference, this is what I did: 1. Download and unpack RC2. 2. Run bootstrap.bat, it builds 32-bit bjam and b2. 3. Run bjam.exe -j 4 --build-type=complete toolset=msvc variant=debug threading=multi debug-symbols=on link=shared runtime-link=shared address-model=64 libs/log/test
