My bad, it should have been --prefix="C:\Program Files\Microsoft
Visual Studio 8\VC"

I also don't think it's a good place to install things into, but I'm
primarily not a Windows user, and putting the boost libraries
installed in the default include/ and lib/ directory of the compiler I
use just makes it _easier_ if anything else. ;)
