This occurs when the lib you're linking to was built with different code
generation options than your .exe.  The libs are built against the dynamic
runtime by default, if you want to link against the static runtime lib, then
invoke bjam with:

bjam -sBUILD="release debug <runtime-link>static" -sTOOLS=vc7

for the static single threaded variants

or:

bjam -sBUILD="release debug <runtime-link>static
<threading>multi" -sTOOLS=vc7

for the static multithreaded variants.
