[C++-sig] 2 Problems in build

[David LeBlanc]

mpl fuss: only that you said I needed it.

WRT the build problems, I did set all the environment variables as indicated
and yet, the defaults from the jam file where what jam displayed before it
massively failed on all the targets due to tools not being found. That
problem went away when I changed the defaults in the python and msvc-tools
jam files. I didn't/don't know what else to try.
