I don't remember anyone fixing it, and 1.59 RC2 indeed fails to
compile for me, so the problem persists. For the reference, this is
what I did:

1. Download and unpack RC2.
2. Run bootstrap.bat, it builds 32-bit bjam and b2.
3. Run bjam.exe -j 4 --build-type=complete toolset=msvc variant=debug
threading=multi debug-symbols=on link=shared runtime-link=shared
address-model=64 libs/log/test
