 acc-tools.jam included with [Boost].[1_33_1] doesn't have "+DD64" and "-mt" as 
part of aCC-Link-action{} and actions aCC-C++-action{} by default. 

 I was able to build 32/64-bit (single/multi threaded) binaries for 
[Boost].[1_33_1] by 
 adding following options to acc-tools.jam:-
 ---------------------------------Cut here -------------------------------------
  # architecture/instruction-set/address-model options
 .ARCH = <architecture>ia64 <architecture>native ;
 flags acc CFLAGS $(.ARCH)/<instruction-set>default : +DSnative ;
 flags acc CFLAGS $(.ARCH)/<instruction-set>blended : +DSblended ;
 flags acc CFLAGS $(.ARCH)/<instruction-set>itanium : +DSitanium ;
 flags acc CFLAGS $(.ARCH)/<instruction-set>itanium2 : +DSitanium2 ;
 flags acc CFLAGS $(.ARCH)/<instruction-set>mckinley : +DSitanium2 ;
 flags acc CFLAGS $(.ARCH)/<instruction-set>montecito : +DSmontecito;
 flags acc CFLAGS $(.ARCH)/<address-model>default : +DD64 ;
 flags acc CFLAGS $(.ARCH)/<address-model>32 : +DD32 ;
 flags acc CFLAGS $(.ARCH)/<address-model>64 : +DD64 ;
 flags acc LINKFLAGS $(.ARCH)/<address-model>default : +DD64 ;
 flags acc LINKFLAGS $(.ARCH)/<address-model>32 : +DD32 ;
 flags acc LINKFLAGS $(.ARCH)/<address-model>64 : +DD64 ;
 ---------------------------------Cut here -------------------------------------

 However, the above mentioned method hasn't worked for bjam.v2 on hp-ux(ia64).
 bjam install --variant=release --without-python --toolset=acc 
 --prefix="$HOME/RC_1_34_0" --builddir=/tmp --optimization=full 
 --threading=single/multi --runtime-link=shared,static 
 --architechture=ia64 --instruction-set=itanium2 --address-model=64  
1>>build.log 2>>build.log
 
 I guess bjam.v2 can default to 64-bit build for hp-ux(ia64), but should also 
provide an option for 32-bit build. 
 Since <threading>multi: -mt; is already present as an option in acc.jam, "-mt" 
option should be removed from all actions rules {} i.e. compile and link.
 
 Btw, is "flags acc CFLAGS" equivalent to "flags.acc.compile OPTIONS" ?

 Please let me know if I should try out something else to achieve this with 
bjam.v2.
