I have the following Jamroot file below and I have been noticing a difference between MSVC command prompt and Cygwin (gcc).
I have two questions with this post:
1) What is the dealy-o with path-constant where locals are involved in the path and what is the difference (besides the obvious syntax difference between ms and cygwin path/directory syntax)?
2) Why does bjam swap between use of cygwin paths and dos paths in the build when in the cygwin environment building for toolset msvc
Help, as always, is greatly appreciated

So likely the issue is in the build-dir
: build-dir build/$(HOSTNAME)
as $(HOSTNAME) is a local not a path constant. Are locals allowed here? If not can one convert from local to path-constant?
if I make the change:
#local HOSTNAME = [ modules.peek : HOSTNAME ] ;
path-constant HOSTNAME : hostname ;
It works, which is not what I want... but it works. Why the difference between cygwin and msvc
=============================================================================
Now Question 2: In building in cygwin for msvc with:
-d+2 toolset=msvc target-os=windows debug
Why does bjam swap between use of cygwin paths and dos paths in the build
as in actions:
/out:"e:\projects\boost\MyNotes\BjamOrBSquare\ProjectX\source\3rdParty\Win32\boost\boost_1_38_0\bin.v2\libs\system\build\msvc-9.0express\debug\target-os-windows\threading-multi\boost_system-vc90-mt-gd-1_38.dll"
and in modules

It's half way there!
