Thank you very much for the assistance. It got my through that error, but
I've smacked headlong into another one. 

My user-config.jam now specifies the compiler with the following line

using gcc : android :
$(androidNDKRoot)/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.7/prebuilt/$(androidPlatform)/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-g++
compileflags="--sysroot=$(androidNDKRoot)/platforms/android-8/arch-arm/
-I$(androidNDKRoot)/sources/cxx-stl/gnu-libstdc++/4.7/include
-I$(androidNDKRoot)/sources/cxx-stl/gnu-libstdc++/4.7/libs/armeabi/include"
;

I've played around with adding spaces before and after the equal sign in
compileflags="--sysroot...", but in all cases I got an error similar to:

arm-linux-androideabi-g++.exe: error:
compileflags=--sysroot=/cygdrive/c/Android/android-ndk-r8d/platforms/android-8/arch-arm/:
No such file or directory

If I leave that compile flag out, the error recurs for the next -I compile
flag. I have verified that directories exist at each of those paths.

When trying the alternate format I came across for compile flags, which
changes the compiler line to this:

using gcc : android :
$(androidNDKRoot)/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.7/prebuilt/$(androidPlatform)/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-g++
<compileflags>--sysroot=$(androidNDKRoot)/platforms/android-8/arch-arm/
<compileflags>-I$(androidNDKRoot)/sources/cxx-stl/gnu-libstdc++/4.7/include
<compileflags>-I$(androidNDKRoot)/sources/cxx-stl/gnu-libstdc++/4.7/libs/armeabi/include
;

I get a four instances of the following error when I attempt to run b2:
/bin/sh: compileflags: No such file or directory

I've also tried with a space between <compileflags> and the flag, but I get
the very same errors.

I really do appreciate your initial help. It would help me immensely if you
could offer any advice on this next problem as well, or could point me to
somewhere that I could learn to work through these problems for myself. The
particulars about how things need to be formatted / spaced aren't obvious to
me, and I haven't had luck finding relevant documentation.

Thanks!
