Comment:

 I'm more and more convinced that this patch is the real fix.

 One mystery solved: the regression test passes the toolset into
 test_all.py on the command-line, as such:

 ----
 "C:\Software\Open\Python\python.exe" test_all.py --default-bjam --xml gcc-
 mingw-4.4.0  1>F:\boost\MinGW-32\trunk\results\boost-build-gcc-
 mingw-4.4.0\test_log.xml

 ----
 Called without a toolset, it defaults to just "gcc" and works fine. This
 solves [http://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2010/12/173676.php].
