Problems with building Boost Libraries for vc7.1 compiler

I have been attempting to build a complete set of Boost libraries 
for use with a vc7.1 compiler. I need to be compatible with debug 
operations, and would be happy with either a static or a dynamic 
library. I am using version 1.30.2 of the source and version 3.1.9 
of boost-jam-ntx86. I have used a variety of arguments for the bjam 
executable, and have consistently gotten the results shown below. I 
am looking for suggestions regarding the proper way to execute the 
build process.

Many thanks in advance for your suggestions.
