Sorry for the long post to follow, not sure how much is relevant :-\

OK, trying it again as I don't immediately remember what the problems
where last time I tried it :-)

1. I launch the MinGW/MSYS shell.
2. export DO_DIFF=diff
3. cd /c/DevRoots/Boost/boost/tools/build/v2/test
4. clear ; python test_all.py

The first failure is:

DIFFERENCE
Unable to compute difference
FAILED

Which is weird because there's no difference from the expected and
actual output AFAICT. And it is indeed able to do the diff as it
displays it. But that's not the interesting problem... Second failure is:

generators_test :

And that's the cause, either directly or indirectly of the rest of the
failures AFAICT. My user-config.jam is obviously correct as I use it for
building and testing both Boost and my own code with BBv2. I'm
ataching it for reference. I then go and read through Python code to
find out if it's possible to specify the toolset thinking that maybe if
I specify one things will go better. And I go through the same setup but
use "python test_all.py msvc". And the failure now is:

project_test3 :

So a few more errors now. Seems that my specifying the toolset as an arg
doesn't work as it just doesn't think there are toolsets configured
ever. So instead it things it's a target. I now switch to using a
regular CMD.EXe shell, and it then seems to find the configured
toolsets. But I still get a bunch of errors because expected outputs are
falsely different, I think:

C:\DevRoots\Boost\boost\tools\build\v2\test>python test_all.py msvc

Set environmental variable 'DO_DIFF' to examine difference.

I'm guessing that perhaps the generators_test is a real failure, and
possibly others. But it's impossible to tell when there are other bogus
failures. Note, I use the MSYS shell because it is way more convenient
than the regular shell. So I'd rather not hear that I need to use the
CMD shell for this. I guess I'll make a shell script that does the
running for me if that's the case. So my suggestion would be to put in
the test dir a test.bat and test.sh scripts for other people to readily
find with the default/best way to run tests with some brief instructions.
