Hi Volodya,

Thanks for the suggestions.
I still wouldn't able to build the debug version under vs9's commandline 
prompt.
It turns out that the "--" is required otherwise bjam says it didn't 
recognize the keywords.

I use
bjam --prefix=c:\boost install --build-dir=c:\boost --variant=debug 
--toolset=msvc --threading=multi --link=static
to build and I check the sub-directories, there is no "*-gd*" has been 
built.

Any further suggestion?

Thank you.
john
