I was finally able to get to my windows 7 box and tried the
suggestion. This does in fact name the libraries "correctly".

C:\Users\mjackson\Workspace\boost_1_39_0>bjam_x64.exe toolset=msvc-9.0 --with-te
st --with-program_options --with-date_time --with-thread --prefix=C:\Developer\V
S9\boost_1_39 variant=release,debug threading=multi link=static runtime-link=sha
red install

Thanks for the heads up.
