[Boost-build] 1.36 VC++ makefiles hardcoded to 1.35?

Hello - new to boost here, but not new to C++, makefiles, etc.  I just
downloaded boost and am attempting to build and use ICU regex based on the 
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_36_0/libs/regex/doc/html/boost_regex/install.html
instructions .  I had initial problems, such as having to update my vanilla
VC8 install with SP1.  Now it compiles and seems to install alright, but
VC++ cannot find the libraries.  Upon closer inspection, the vc8 makefile
(and others in ../boost_1_36_0/libs/regex/build/) is 'hardcoded' to create
libraries/dlls named "...1_35...", even though the boost version is clearly
1_36.  As that version is specified in the main boost header file, VC++
attempts to link to libraries with that version and consequently cannot find
them.

I can simply edit the makefile and change "35" to "36", but I'm wondering if
it is supposed to be that way  and I am not going about it correctly.  I
have not used bjam or any tool other than nmake.
