[Boost-testing] Getting Started with Testing

I just got a new server running and I was hoping to get a VM going running
the regression tests on the trunk, but I seem to be having a bit of a
problem.  I can run a regression test fine with msvc-10.0, but when I try
to run with msvc-8.0 or msvc-9.0 I get the following error:

C:\local\regression\boost\status>"C:\local\regression\tools_bjam\bin.ntx86\bjam.exe"

Indeed in the C:\local\regression\results folder that whole path is
missing. There is only a bjam.log file with the following contents:

I'm particularly noticing the line that says: "8.0" is not a known
subfeature value of <toolset>msvc, but I'm not sure why that would be
happening.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
