These things are great!!

Now, we should really unify them with "using."

So,

using msvc ;

should essentially do

import msvc-config ;

of course we need to get msvc-config.jam to handle vc6.

Also, versions should be registered highest-to-lowest, and we should
implement the ability to do a versionless build, which should pick the
first version registered. So if 8.0 is installed,

bjam msvc

should be equivalent to

bjam msvc-8.0

Thoughts?
