[Boost-build] Using boost.build v2 to build/test application and boost

Hi!

I'm having problems integrating boost.build v2 with my application and boost.
What I'm trying to do is to make boost.build in my application build
automatically what is needed in boost.

I have a test that is like this:

project mintercept/mail/test ;

import testing ;

test-suite mail
  : [ run test.cpp
$(MINTERCEPT_ROOT)/libs/boost/libs/test/build//boost_unit_test_framework
]
;

It compiles boost_unit_test_framework, and creates this tree from the
root of my application:
libs\boost\bin.v2\libs\test\build\msvc-7.1\debug\asynch-exceptions-on\link-static
The .lib created is: boost_unit_test_framework-vc71-d-1_34.lib
But the linker complains:

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_unit_test_framework-vc71-
mt-gd-1_34.lib'

What do I do? Should I disable auto linking? If it is so, how do I do?
Or is the boost.build not building the correct target?
