I'm still not able to see a dll. There is a pyd file created and a .lib file. Should the dll
file be in the same directory and should it be called hello_ext.dll?

By default Boost.Build deletes some binaries used in testing when the
test passes.

try deleting
bin\hello.test\msvc-8.0express\debug\threading-multi\hello.test, adding
"-d+2" and "--preserve-test-targets" to your bjam command line, and
running the test again. Then you can see what it's doing.
