I think I found the reason for the problem. It's not in bbv2, but caused by 
the change to regression.py.

      if not toolsets is None:
          if v2:
-            result += ' ' + string.join(string.split( toolsets, ',' ), ' ' )
+            result += ' "--toolset=%s"' % string.join( string.split( 
toolsets, ',' ), ' ' )
          else:
              result += ' "-sTOOLS=%s"' % string.join( string.split( 
toolsets, ',' ), ' ' )

I run the regression tests with 
--toolsets="hp_cxx-65_042_tru64,hp_cxx-71_006_tru64" as an argument to 
regression.py.

Seems like bjam doesn't like the resulting "--toolset=hp_cxx-65_042_tru64 
hp_cxx-71_006_tru64".

Does that make sense?
