My assumption during this whole process is that with a correctly configured MSVC/Boost.Build environment, I can get the Asio SSL examples to compile simply by issuing "b2" from the corresponding directory. I am starting to believe this assumption is false.
The Jamfile isn't really designed to support it.

Yes I am believing that as well!
A lib ssl in user-config.jam is totally separate from a lib ssl in your Jamfile. To access it you'll need to add project user-config ; in user-config.jam and then refer to /user-config//ssl in the Jamfile
This is producing results! I am making forward progress now. But I'm still left wondering how anyone is supposed to build the Asio SSL example on Windows (without having to add a bunch of paths to the b2 invocation every time).
You can set them in user-config with the 'project' rule. The only problem is that they will be used for all builds of everything, regardless of whether they're actually needed. I suppose that you could put a project-config.jam in the directory of the ssl example. This will be used only when you run b2 in that directory. In Christ, Steven Watanabe
