Thankyou for this. Now I don't know what it means when it talks 
about MSVC_ROOT and VISUALC variables. These are recognised by the 
msvc toolset apparently. Does this mean that visual studio 
understands them and I should define one in project settings? Or 
something else? IOW what do I have to do? I have put vc98/bin on 
the path but still cannot do bjam --version.
