Okay, here's what we get:

notice: <toolset>msvc-6.5
notice: <toolset>msvc-7.0
notice: <toolset>msvc-7.1
notice: <toolset>borland-5.6.4
notice: <toolset>borland-5.8.1
notice: <toolset>borland-5.8.2
notice: <toolset>cw-8.3
error: no Jamfile in current directory found, and no target references specified.
