Okay, please try this:
using msvc : 8.0 : "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\\VC\\BIN\\cl.exe"
: <setup>"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\\VC\\BIN\\vcvarsall.bat"
;
make sure that paths are correct -- I'm not sure I got the path to the script right. If that works,
we can try figuring why original attempts failed.

Still doesn't work (when paths are adjusted. (For XP 32 bit: there is no (x86) in the path). Also,vcvarsall.bat lives one directory higher.
As an experiment I also tested in a "Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt" window. Presumably this is a command window in which
vcvarsall.bat has been pre-executed. In this case, I seem to get a little bit further. Now I am seeing a lot of these messages:
cl : Command line warning D9002 : ignoring unknown option '/favor:blend', and an occasional: cl : Command line warning D9025 : overriding '/GR' with '/GR-'
but at least it's compiling now. This kind of makes me wonder about the settings. Thanks for the help so far.Let me know if you have further advice, or if there are further tests that I might carry out that would assist you in getting this automated.
