As far as B2 is concerned it would be as easy as using the compiler
reported version for the B2 toolset version. But that would probably mean
breaking everyones build files. Which I'm fine with, but I can see others
might not be. In all of this it doesn't help that msvc versions are so
horribly muddled.
