Can you clarify that? Not that docs are stellar, but I fail to understand
what can be obscure about *compiler names*. Did you see this:

        http://boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/reference/tools.html

which lists Boost.Build toolsets and corresponding product names. It also
lists, for cases where compiler vendor went crazy with branding, what
compiler version what product has.
