Andreas,
Sorry for the delay in responding.
I'm able to get the latest git using commands through the GIT bash shell. I'm
also able to use and activate virtualenv through a traditional command prompt.
But, I'm not sure how to configure pycuda to build from the bpl-subset instead
of an external boost source. What do you specify for the missing entries in
the siteconf.py file below:
BOOST_INC_DIR = []
BOOST_LIB_DIR = []
BOOST_COMPILER = 'msvc9'
USE_SHIPPED_BOOST = True
BOOST_PYTHON_LIBNAME = []
BOOST_THREAD_LIBNAME = []
if using msvc as your compiler? I'm very unfamiliar with virtualenv, so I'm
not quite sure how to go about installing pycuda through that environment,
unfortunately. Sorry for the inconvenience!
thanks,
Mike

Sure. Do you know of virtualenv [1]? This will help you keep your new
installation separate from the old, working one. (I personally use
virtualenvs for any package I develop or install from source.)

As far as getting pycuda from git is concerned, this should be enough:
git clone https://github.com/inducer/pycuda.git
cd pycuda
git submodule init
git submodule update
(make sure your virtualenv is active)
(configure the same way you configured your old copy, but using 'shipped
boost')
python setup.py install
(should be ready to use)
Andreas
