If you build all of boost from the root directory you should get threaded
lib's as well as the thread-unsafe versions, but from libs/regex/build then:
export BUILD="<threading>multi"
bjam stage
should do the trick.
You can always double check the status of the lib by building and then
running the regex_config_info.cpp test program: it will output the values of
all the config macros that are set and BOOST_HAS_THREADS should be one of
them.
