It doesn't. I tried
bjam --toolset=msvc-8.0 cxxflags=/wd4251
but bjam spits errors about invalid arguments and aborts without
building anything. So I tried
bjam --toolset=msvc-8.0 --cxxflags=/wd4251
and it was better, but not good enough. It did compile this time, only
warning 4251 was still not disabled. So I tried
bjam -d+2 --toolset=msvc-8.0 --cxxflags=/wd4251
to show the actual command executed (as suggested by bjam --help) but I
couldn't figure anything from it. It seems 'cl' is passed some .rsp
files, instead of .cpp file (as I expected). The command line didn't
include '/wd4251', but maybe it's because the usage of the .rsp file
(which I have no idea what it is).
To conclude, I still can't disable a warning...
