[Boost-users] Am I building 64-bit Boost correctly?

I have finally decided to get my feet wet, when it comes to the 64-bit 
world.

Honestly, all my fears turned out to be valid, and then some. I have a 
MSVS-2010 Solution that includes several varied projects: GUI, libraries 
(both kids) and Shell Extensions.

Since a couple of my projects depend on Boost (the greatest set of 
libraries ever known to man! Boost rocks! Boost rules!!... but I 
digress): I decided to start there.

Since I am getting some boost-related error messages, I figure that step 
number zero is to make sure that my Boost installation is healthy.

This is how I build it:

.\bootstrap.bat

.\bjam.exe --with-date_time --with-filesystem --with-regex --with-system 
--stagedir=. --build-type=complete toolset=msvc-10.0 address-model=64

Notice that the above commands have served me well for years (minus the 
last parameter, which I am now using for the first time).

Is that all I need?

TIA,

-Ramon
