The problem is that there are a multitude of inconsistently named Intel 
toolsets, if you build with intel-win32-tools.jam then auto-linking will 
work, but if you build with one of the "versioned" toolsets then it won't. 
I hope that bbv2 will adopt a saner naming convention for libraries (if 
there is one of course).
