Research direction

Review the "Getting Started" pages for Windows and Unix Variants, focusing on the § "Library Naming" example. Compare it with the documented address-model keys, then update the example so it uses the supported 32 or 64 form rather than 86 and verify both pages are consistent.

Description

In the "Getting Started" pages (on Windows and on Unix Variants), the example used for § "Library Naming" (libboost_regex-vc71-mt-d-x86-1_34.lib) is inconsistent with the keys documented for the address model (either 32 or 64, but no 86).
