[Boost-users] bjam define=_SECURE_SCL shows no effect

hi,
after reading through this thread [1] i tried the following to build boost::program options:

bjam define=_SECURE_SCL=0 define=_TESTING_SOMTHING=1 --toolset=msvc-8.0 --with-program_options variant=release

to test the effect i added the folowing to the store function in program_options:

#if _SECURE_SCL == 1
std::cout << "_SECURE_SCL == 1" << std::endl;
#else
std::cout << "_SECURE_SCL == 0" << std::endl;
#endif
#if _TESTING_SOMTHING == 1
std::cout << "_TESTING_SOMTHING == 1" << std::endl;
#else
std::cout << "_TESTING_SOMTHING == 0" << std::endl;
#endif

the strange thing now is, that _TESTING_SOMTHING is correctly set to 1 but _SECURE_SCL still is set to 1 and not to 0.

did i miss something or is there another way to get this set properly to disable all runtime checks for release builds?
