Boost-Build :

The "Initiating a Build" section of .../tools/build/build_system.htm has a
table with several command line examples. For example:

bjam -sBUILD="<cxxflags>/G6"

At least on my Win XP system, that doesn't work. It has to be:

bjam "-sBUILD=<cxxflags>/G6"

I'm not entirely sure, but wouldn't be surprised if every case is wrong
where the double-quote is in the middle of an argument.

If someone with a better understanding of bjam (and how various operating
systems parse arguments) will confirm that, I'll update the HTML.

Thanks,
