 Hi there. MPI-autodetection (in mpi.jam) on Windows only looks for MS-MPI
 v1 (to be found in "C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Compute Cluster Pack", as
 the product v1 was named Compute Cluster Pack), it overlooks MS-MPI v1 (to
 be found in "C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft HPC Pack 2008 SDK" or
 "C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft HPC Pack 2008 R2 SDK").

 Simple workaround: Extend mpi.jam to search in all three paths (as in the
 one attached). Actually, this is the behavior I would like to see by
 default).


 Kind regards, Christian.
