I am using centos 5.11 with gcc-4.6.3 support ,I need to build boost thread library(version 1.82) using the same gcc without upgrading .

What I have tried:

The commands I used are
./bootstrap.sh
./b2

But running the bootstrap command I am getting the error :
cpp: fatal error: too many input files
compilation terminated.
> cp b2 bjam
cp: cannot stat 'b2': No such file or directory


My question is,is it possible to build b2 for boost 1.82 using gcc-4.6.3 ,or can i build the b2 engine using gcc version >gcc-4.6.3 and using that b2 engine can I build the boost header files and libraries in a linux system with gcc-4.6.3 support ?on the whole i need to use b2 engine in a system with gcc-4.6.3 support to build the boost library.

Either case kindly provide pre-requisites and compilation steps.
