Actually, there's gcc-nocygwin toolset for V1, which does nothing except for 
additionally setting the linker/compiler flags.

I'm not sure why this is a separate toolset. Maybe it's because in V1 there's 
no project requirements, so the only other solution would be to specify 
<linkflags> for every target in every Jamfile, which is not attractive 
solution.
