[Boost-build] Unable to run regressions on Win32

Our daily regression runs on Win32 keep aborting during bjam
dependency analysis stage (not sure if that's the right name for it,
but see below) with the following log:

Building Boost.Regex with the optional Unicode/ICU support disabled.
Please refer to the Boost.Regex documentation for more information
(and if you don't know what ICU is then you probably don't need it).
MFC/ATL regex wrappers will be tested when building with VC7.1

boost-test(RUN) "any/any_test" : "libs\any\any_test.cpp"
...
boost-test(RUN) "wave/test_re2c_lexer" : "libs\wave\test\testlexers\test_re2c_lexer.cpp"
boost-test(RUN) "wave/test_slex_lexer" : "libs\wave\test\testlexers\test_slex_lexer.cpp"
boost-test(RUN) "wave/testwave" : "libs\wave\test\testwave\testwave.cpp" "libs\wave\test\testwave\testwave_app.cpp"
<@boost!libs!wave!build>boost_wave.dll: required property <runtime-link>dynamic incompatible with <runtime-link>static

Looking at "libs/wave/build/jamfile" and
"libs/wave/test/build/jamfile", I can't easily spot the source of the
claimed conflict, so any hints on what could be wrong would be greatly
appreciated.

Also, it would be really nice if errors like this didn't terminate the
whole regression run; simply skipping the test at fault seems
sufficient. Does anybody have an estimate on how costly would it be to
to fix this?

TIA,
