It's been a while since I installed MSYS, but the default installation
did not include MSYS Perl by default. It was something you would
install separately. I don't know if this is still the case.

At any rate, you can just edit the generated Jamconfig to point PERL
at the ActiveState binary. (There should be no need to edit
Jamconfig.msvcgen, I would think.) Even better, set the PERL variable
to point at ActiveState when you configure CS. For instance:
./configure PERL='/c/Program Files/ActiveState/Perl/whatever'

It appears that you neglected to install TemplateToolkit
<template-toolkit.org> fully, or that the installation is somehow
corrupt, or maybe it installed its Perl modules in the wrong location.
As I recall, installation of TemplateToolkit under ActiveState Perl
using the Perl Package Manager was somewhat painless.
