That's fixed it - thanks very much. It was the \'s in the configuration
path.

FWIW, my build fails with the extra colon:
C:/root/Development/Library/Boost/boost_1_39_0/tools/build/v2/build\toolset.
jam:
38: in toolset.using
*** argument error
* rule stlport.init ( version ? : headers libraries * )
* called with: ( :
C:/root/Development/Library/STLport/STLport-5.2.1/stlport :

* extra argument C:/root/Development/Library/STLport/STLport-5.2.1/lib/vc8
C:/root/Development/Library/Boost/boost_1_39_0/tools/build/v2/tools\stlport.

Thanks for you help
