Comment (by weegreenblobbie@…):

 Agreed!  I've been trying to build 1_55 in 64-bit mode and no matter what
 combination of address-model=64 or arichetecture=x86 I can't get it to
 work.

 This build command doesn't seem to work:

 {{{
 b2 -j 8 -q ^
         --without-mpi ^
         --build-dir=tmp_bld_dir ^
         --variant=release ^
         --build-type=minimal ^
         architecture=x86 ^
         adress-model=64 ^
         toolset=msvc ^
         link=shared ^
         runtime-link=shared ^
         threading=multi ^
         install
 }}}
