Try invoking "vcvars32.bat" from your preferred compiler installation before
running "build.bat". I don't have multiple installations of VC, and did not
wrote built.bat, but this might work.

Hmm.. the sourceforge download page has some executables. I'm pretty sure
they won't work with Boost.Build V2 M3, though :-(
