Cross Platform C++ Tool Chain

Well I am currently working on putting together a cross platform C++ development tool chain. I want to use Boost Build and Boost Test for sure. Both are very amazing. Currently I feel the best route would be to use the compilers meant for each OS and Boost Build will greatly aid in this. It will allow for the MSVC compiler on windows and GCC for linux. The only stumbling blocks right now are editors / Debuggers. It would be nice to not have to learn cmd line for 2 different debuggers but that might be the only case. Editor wise I can go with anything really even Non IDE. Or I might just be able to use VC++ Express and use boost build on linux only. Suggestions are welcome I am very open minded. Sometimes I wish there was a compiler that was shared between all Operating Systems.
EDIT: After many gripes with this today I have decided to screw it. The headaches of worrying about cross platform are not worth it time to get visual studio set up and work on my damn game.
