[build] Boost.Build/develop broken with msvc?

This error only appears if you pass the path to the compiler explicitly in your `using msvc` statement. The bug already existed but was masked by another bug which Tom's PR fixed. I'll fix it shortly, but you should be able to work around the issue by leaving off the path and letting vswhere find it automatically.

Ugh. msvc.jam is running in circles. Fixing this is going to require a significant rewrite, so it'll probably take me a few days. In Christ, Steven Watanabe

No worries, in the mean time, the new msvc version detection is working well. Thanks, John. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus
