Tom,

this is a completely different problem; it even have a different error message ;-)
The relevant output is:

        warning: No toolsets are configured.
        warning: Configuring default toolset "msvc".
        warning: If the default is wrong, your build may not work correctly.
        warning: Use the "toolset=xxxxx" option to override our guess.
        warning: For more configuration options, please consult
        ...
        error: "8.0" is not a known subfeature value of <toolset>msvc

You had 9.0 configured by default, not 8.0. You can fix this by putting:

        using msvc : all ;

in your user-config.jam. See 

        http://www.boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/advanced/configuration.html

for documentation about where user-config.jam should be placed.
