I get the following error while linking a program with boost_regex:
"libboost_regex-vc80-mt-gd-1_34.lib (w32_regex_traits.obj) : fatal error 
LNK1112: module machine type 'X86' conflicts with target machine type 'x64'"

Are you sure about the parameter "address-model=64"? It seems that bjam 
ignores wrong arguments (which is bad), so one cannot confirm correct 
spelling. Maybe it is "address-model=x64", who knows...
Isn't there a list of all valid parameters to bjam?
