Just in case others have the same problem in the future. My mingw 
toolsets' bin directories were not in PATH (regressions were run using a 
gcc.bat script in user-config.jam that sets PATH to the bin directory of 
the desired mingw version and forwards arguments to g++). Mingw toolsets 
were declared before the MSVC-7.1 toolset in user-config.jam, so 
regression.py was choosing the mingw toolset to build 
process_jam_log.exe. Trying to execute that process_jam_log.exe was not 
possible as it could not found several DLLs (like libstdc++).

I've deleted the process_jam_log.exe executable, put the msvc toolset 
the first and tried also --pjl-toolset=msvc-7.1  in the command line to 
make sure msvc is used to build the executable. Regressions are running 
fine now.

Best,

Ion
