I did it. The output is:

-- CONSOLE OUT --
Ready to build unicomm...

D:/work/extra/boost-build\build-system.jam:722: in load
rule object(main-target)@637.str unknown in module build-system.

Unicomm building finished: ERRORLEVEL = '0'
-- CONSOLE OUT --

It seems the first echo causes an error. Because I don't see lines 
"Target XXXXX" and "first-project XXXX". I commented out the first echo 
and the output is:

-- CONSOLE OUT --
Ready to build unicomm...

first-project object(project-target)@622

I can also specify --debug-xxx options if necessary
