You'll have to "tell" b2 to use the same linker (and output format as the one you're using with CB). The compiler just builds object-files, there's nothing to "recognise", so the error must be linked to the linker.

C:\Temp>lld
lld is a generic driver.
Invoke ld.lld (Unix), ld64.lld (macOS) or lld-link (Windows) instead.

You'll probably have to start with using clang++.exe, and not clang-cl.exe (although you could try clang-cl -fuse-ld=lld -flto=thin, but I guess that will still use lld-link, which will produce the same files as link.exe (the VC-one)).

You can also add the clang-cl -v (verbose) option, that might give you a better idea as to what is actually going on.
