  The idea of directly adding "+DD64" option to the CXX command did come up, 
but wanted to check if there was a better way of achieving the same i.e by 
passing <instruction-set> or some similar option  to bjam.
  Thanks a lot, guess will use the same trick for AIX. 
  Does boost 1.34 has some better option for 64-bit build ?

  Am in the process of upgrading aCC to A.06.13.
