[Boost-build] absolute include path for bjam with msvc in cygwin

Hi,

I am struggling with bjam in Cygwin. I am using
toolset=msvc and somehow I am not able to get absolute
include paths right. Somehow the msvc-compiler does
not recognize this. My guess is the difference in
denotation of paths in Cygwin and Windows.

Below the output of bjam -d2. The compiltaion fails
because it cant find a included file in
/usr/local/include/boost-1_35, although this directory
is added to the -I option. I tried using Windows
notation of the include-path, but I can't get it to
work.

So how can I make this work?

Cheers,
Andrej
