Hi Juraj,

your patch is pretty good, but it gives me this problem when linking:

"-manifest" unknown as internal or external command, executable or batch
file

        if exist
"bin\msvc-12.0\debug\link-
static\threading-multi\main.exe.manifest" (
             -manifest
"bin\msvc-12.0\debug\link-static\threading-multi\main.exe.manifest"
"-outputresource:bin\msvc-12.0\debug\link-static\threading-multi\main.exe;1=
"
        )

...failed msvc.manifest
bin\msvc-12.0\debug\link-static\threading-multi\main.exe
bin\msvc-12.0\debug\link-static\threading-multi\main.pdb
bin\msvc-12.0\debug\link-static\threading-multi\main.pdb...
...removing bin\msvc-12.0\debug\link-static\threading-multi\main.exe
...removing bin\msvc-12.0\debug\link-static\threading-multi\main.pdb
...skipped <p.>main.exe for lack of
<pbin\msvc-12.0\debug\link-static\threading-multi>main.exe...

Looking at msvc.jam, it looks like .MT is not set. With the original
unpatched version I don't have this problem. Any clue of why would it
happen?

This is the full output of -d+2 at link stage:
