I'd appreciate if people test current state of master branch, and report any concerns.

Without docs or examples as to what should happen, it is hard to know whether everything is working correctly.

Everything that worked before this update should continue to work with unchanged behavior. In addition, all of the following should work: b2 [options] b2 [options] architecture=X b2 [options] address-model=Y b2 [options] architecture=X address-model=Y If either architecture or address-model is unspecified, then the behavior will be the same as if it were set to the compiler default. (For msvc, this is specified as x86/32). "Works" means that the libraries are built for the correct architecture, although there's no easy way to verify this automatically. The best way I can think of is to write a trivial program to link against the newly generated libraries. file might also work. If architecture and address-model are not specified, they should not appear in any build paths. In Christ, Steven Watanabe
