The second error is just issued because the examples and test suite
expected to find the library. The first one is what prevented the
library from being built, and is kind of puzzling. since I have no
"vector.h" in my VC7, Boost or QuantLib installation. Your environment
seems to be picking it up from some other include directory, which it
shouldn't. Maybe you have some INCLUDE environment variable left from a
previous installation? What file does VC open when you double-click on
the error?
