Sure.  I'm on travel so my responses will be slow to non-existent.

// user-config.jam

using gcc
   : 4.4.1
   : /home/sntools/extras/compilers/gcc-4.4.1/bin/g++
   ;

using gcc
   : 4.4.1-0x
   : /home/sntools/extras/compilers/gcc-4.4.1/bin/g++
   : <cxxflags>-std=gnu++0x
   ;

but Boost.Build has a problem with using a dash as a toolset version  
separator, Boost.Build seems to think it's a sub-feature.  So I  
patched feature.jam and use the patch_boost script to copy the patched  
feature.jam into boost/tools/build/v2/build/feature.jam.
