I am having issue running vcvars32.bat. I got the same error when running
it.
This is a known issue:

I will fix it first and come back with a report.
Thanks,
Robert

then I got: Building Boost.Build engine "......... (my build environment info)" was unexpected at this time.
Make sure that you have permission to work in Program Files. Consider trying to build somewhere more accessible, preferably somewhere without spaces, in case that's the reason.
The output there looks strange, as I am not aware of any branding of VS where it's called 'Visul'.
You do not need a VS command prompt to build Boost.Build or Boost itself, it can automatically find and use the MSVC you have.
You could try going into tools\build\v2\engine and run build.bat from there. If that succeeds, copy the resulting bin.ntx86\b2.exe into the boost_1_50_0 directory and continue from there.
