In your real environment, do you really have multiple source files
with the same name living in different directories? If you do,
then things get more complicated. However, if you have something like:

+-root
--+-util
----|-a.cc
----+-sub1
------|-b.cc

Then you can do:
(1) In root, put an empty Jamroot file (or can have other stuff you want)

(2) In the util directory, put a Jamfile which has:

project myproject : source-location . sub1 ;

lib util : a.cc b.cc ;

(3) Then go to the util directory, and type bjam
