I did not know about this, at least, thanks for pointing out!

Alexey, can you show me the content of user-config.jam? Alternatively, can
you make sure that for 6.5, full path to compiler is specified? Technically
speaking,

   using msvc : 6.5 ;

should find location of 6.5 from the registry, but that's more brittle that
writing down the full path to the compiler, something like:

  using msvc : 6.5 : "C:/Program Files/...../bin/cl.exe" ;

(Note quotes and forward slashes!).

Thanks,
Volodya
