You should change a lot. I would say that about a half lines in msvc.jam 
were changed since 1.33.1. Moreover you will need to build bjam.exe 
itself because 1.33.1 is not compatible with the new response files 
support (and I guess thomething else).

BTW: You mentioned vcvars32.bat. Do you have VS installed? It will be 
detected automatically and used instead of Digital Mars compiler. In 
orderf to force DM you will need to say this explicitly:

using msvc : x.y : c:\tools\dm\bin\cl.exe ;
