Somethings wrong with the build there, after

bjam --toolset=msvc --build-type=complete --with-regex stage

I see:

boost_regex-vc80-mt-1_37.dll
boost_regex-vc80-mt-1_37.lib
boost_regex-vc80-mt-gd-1_37.dll
boost_regex-vc80-mt-gd-1_37.lib
boost_regex-vc80-mt-gd.lib
boost_regex-vc80-mt.lib
boost_regex-vc90-mt-1_36.dll
boost_regex-vc90-mt-1_36.lib
boost_regex-vc90-mt.lib
libboost_regex-vc80-mt-1_37.lib
libboost_regex-vc80-mt-gd-1_37.lib
libboost_regex-vc80-mt-gd.lib
libboost_regex-vc80-mt-s-1_37.lib
libboost_regex-vc80-mt-s.lib
libboost_regex-vc80-mt-sgd-1_37.lib
libboost_regex-vc80-mt-sgd.lib
libboost_regex-vc80-mt.lib
libboost_regex-vc80-s-1_37.lib
libboost_regex-vc80-s.lib
libboost_regex-vc80-sgd-1_37.lib
libboost_regex-vc80-sgd.lib
libboost_regex-vc90-mt-1_36.lib
libboost_regex-vc90-mt.lib

where as you seem to only have libraries that correspond to the static msvc 
runtime, can you try invoking the above command and see if you get a few 
more libraries this time around?
