I also find it useful, been able to compile the module with different compilers, but I don't use boost build for it: I compile the module in question manually instead. This is to say, I don't think that "2nd opinion" necessiates executing boost build with several toolsets. Well, if you have a lot of modules you want a "2nd opinion" about, then, perhaps, it is worth it.

I wonder what percentage of Boost users actually configure more than one compiler with Boost.Build? And how many users actually use any compiler other than the one system compiler on their machines?
