When I build this (using bjam --toolset=msvc install) it installs to 
c:\boost\include\boost-1_35 and the library files have 1_35 as the 
version number. This was done with Borland/CodeGear Turbo C++ and with 
Microsoft VC 8.

Also, I tried to build with msvc-8.0 as the toolset and it told me that 
8.0 was not a valid version number. I can use msvc as the toolset but 
then there is not a compiler version number in the resulting libraries. 
(i.e. libboost_thread-vc-mt-1_35.lib).

Am I doing something wrong? Am I the only one seeing this issue?
