Problem solved -- as for some shared learning -- the msvc.jam file was
always stomping my <carefully> set Environment variables by calling
"vcvars32.bat" as a setup, and placing MSVC/Includes ahead of STLPORT in the
include search path.  Msvc.jam has logic for "user setup|vcvars32", but does
not have logic for "user setup|vcvars32|<do nothing, use env>" -- of course,
providing a stubbed "setup.bat" will do the trick of keeping the env vars
pristine.

If the library has symbols with std:: in them, then it was *not* built
against STLport.  Double check all your bjam build options (do we have a
toolset for VC8 and STLport anyway?), and if all else fails, I suggest you
treat the regex lib as "just a bunch of sources" and build from your IDE,
taking care to ensure that build options are the same as for your
application.
