Thanks Reece.

Now I configured both:

----------
#  GCC configuration
#  Configure gcc (default version)
using gcc ;
#  Configure specific gcc version, giving alternative name to use
#  using gcc : 3.2 : g++-3.2 ;
#  MSVC configuration
#  Configure msvc (default version, searched in standard location
#  and PATH).
using msvc : 7.1 ;
----------

But, even if I want to use msvc, it seems to go with gcc anyway:

----------
C:\ark\boost-cvs\boost\libs\typeof\test>bjam --v2 -a -s"TOOLS=msvc"
warning: Python location is not configured
warning: the Boost.Python library won't be built
Building Boost.Regex with the optional Unicode/ICU support disabled.
Please refer to the Boost.Regex documentation for more information
(and if you don't know what ICU is then you probably don't need it).

Also how would I configure different versions of Visual C++ ?
