Description
The attached patches to the boost build tools add recognition of msvc-9.0. The changes effectively reproduce the current msvc-8.0 behaviours/setttings.
So far, they are untested -- it is not clear to me what command I need to invoke from where to check these patches. Do I need to build a new bjam or can I just one of the python scripts?
There are a few enhancements that I will work on once these basics are establised.
For example: the ability to set floating point behaviour, whether to use sse/sse2, and enabling code analysis and container debugging, etc.

Mostly applied... Some notes for future patches... Please do not zip or otherwise package the patch. It makes it impossible to read it online. Please reduce the patch to minimal changes. Hence don't include TODO's or other prospective comments. And for BB additions to common features need to be discussed in the BB list first.

Thanks. Needed to zip as otherwise patch was regarded as spam. Your other advice is noted.
The sse / processor amendments in the patches need further extension so that they can also be used for gcc 4.3.0 which now supports more processors, etc. See http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.3/changes.html
