File boost-build.jam has:
BOOST_ROOT = s:/boost ;
boost-build s:/boost/tools/build ;

Generated ext.CMD:
"bin\ext.pyd\vc7\debug\runtime-link-dynamic\ext.obj"
"C:\Python22\libs"

Last line is aparently incorrect, it shall be
"C:\Python22\libs\Python22.lib"

If I manualy change it, all is fine.
Unfortunately bjam doesn't check validity of ENV variables.
The error in very begining of the thread was due to ugly mix of old ENV.

Now I cleared that (my) mess a little bit:
