Sorry for leaving the results out, I don't know what I was thinking. I was
in too much of a hurry I suppose. Note that I really don't want to drop the
layout=system, since if I do my LIB names get complex. I do not want the
boost version number or anything else in the name. Basically, I want the
names to look something like:
boost_signals-mt-gd.lib
boost_signals-mt.lib

Now onto the results:

warning: Graph library does not contain optional GraphML reader.
note: to enable GraphML support, set EXPAT_INCLUDE and EXPAT_LIBPATH to the
note: directories containing the Expat headers and libraries, respectively.
warning: skipping optional Message Passing Interface (MPI) library.
note: to enable MPI support, add "using mpi ;" to user-config.jam.
note: to suppress this message, pass "--without-mpi" to bjam.
note: otherwise, you can safely ignore this message.
warning: Building Boost.Regex with the optional Unicode/ICU support
disabled.
note: Please refer to the Boost.Regex documentation for more information
note: this is a strictly optional feature.
