Most regression runners use V2 at the moment.

As for the scripts -- you mean runtest.sh? Then, it's not a big problem:

        1. Remove ALL_LOCATE_TARGET setting
        2. Change -sTOOLS= to toolset=
        3. Add --v2 option to process_jam_logs and compiler_status.

In fact, I don't know what is compiler_status2 program is -- I don't see any
by this name in tools directory. Did you some local changes and then
added '2' to the name? If so, those tests won't run with vanilla Boost
anyway, or am I missing something?
