 I'm cannot build boost 1.47.0 (host: Win7 64bit, VS2010/MSVC10.0)
 when specifying a non-default build-dir and address-model at the same
 time:

 RMDIR /S /Q %TEMP%\boost[[br]]
 b2 --build-dir=%TEMP% address-model=64 runtime-link=static stage

 Leads to many errors in the form:

 don't know how to make

 model-64\threading-multi

 or

 Ommitting one of the above mentioned options successfully builds boost!
