Bug in specifying alternate build toolset in gcc.jam

Reported by: carson.fenimore@… Owned by: Vladimir Prus
Milestone: To Be Determined Component: build
Version: Boost 1.49.0 Severity: Regression
Keywords: Cc:

Description

You cannot currently specify alternate gcc versions. For example, if you do the following:

./b2 toolset=gcc-44

You will get an error like:

error: version '44' requested but 'g++-44' not found and version '4.1.2' of default 'g++' does not match

This is because the version-checking code tries to run g++-44 instead of g++44... the patch fixes this in the affected code, comments, and printouts.
