+For each toolset that comes with this version of Visual Studio, there are
+variants that are themselves compiled for 32-bit (x86) and 64-bit (x64) hosts
+(independent of the architecture they target). By default Visual Studio
+chooses the 32-bit variant even on a 64-bit host. One may request use of the
+64-bit host tools by adding ``host=x64`` to the toolset specification:
+
+``host=x64``
+ Select the 64-bit variant of the default toolset.
+``<toolset>,host=x64``
+ Select the 64-bit variant of the ``<toolset>`` toolset.
