I'm on the fence if we should continue supporting 8.0, so if that doesn't get fixed then no big deal. However the issue with (the build tool?) for 14.0 seems like a showstopper for this RC.
I don't think anything has changed in Boost.Build that would affect this. Have you checked your msvc installation? I would suggest checking whether msvc-setup.bat is out-dated, but you're running a clean build here, right? Can you try forcing the original setup scripts: using msvc : 14.0 : : <rewrite-setup-scripts>off ; In Christ, Steven Watanabe
