I am trying to build 1.45 with the following command on Win7 x64 with 
MSVC 9:

bjam variant=release link=shared threading=multi runtime-link=shared 
--layout=tagged install

and I get the following output:

warning: Configuring default toolset "msvc".
warning: If the default is wrong, your build may not work correctly.
warning: Use the "toolset=xxxxx" option to override our guess.
