I try again.
I compile the bcp with mingw and it pass, but compiling with vc7.1 it fail.
The error is:
licence_info.cpp(18) : error C2001: newline in constant

    CALL "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET
2003\VC7\bin\VCVARS32.BAT" >nul

Tp"licence_info.cpp"

...failed vc-C++
..\..\bin\boost\tools\bcp\bcp.exe\vc-7_1\release\threading-multi\licence_inf
o.obj...

I think it is not the vc7.1's fault. I refer to the MSDN and the book of
"the C++ programming language"
The standard c++ do not accept the grammar
printf("Hello,             // error
    world");
printf("Hello,\n          //  error
    world");
only accept the grammar
printf("Hello,\           //  OK
 world");
printf("Hello,"            // OK
    " world");

I think what the code want to do is concatenating all the string literal.
May I am wrong since I find all the other string literal encircling with
quatation("") but the line 18 is not.

In any cases it can not works with vc7.1.
