I fear that gcc is autoconfigured via "project-config.jam" in boost_1_52_0 which is created by bootstrap.sh

My autogenerated project-config.jam contains:

# Compiler configuration. This definition will be used unless
# you already have defined some toolsets in your user-config.jam
# file.
if ! gcc in [ feature.values <toolset> ]
{
    using gcc ; 
}

project : default-build <toolset>gcc ;

so this will make gcc the default toolset indeed.

Please remove either project-config.jam or the lines cited above from it. And please use --debug-configuration next time, this will print which compilers are detected and configured at which .jam file.

Yours,

Jürgen
