It's down to the way we invoke tlib from jam, we use the "update and add"
command line options, which results in the warnings if the lib doesn't
already exist.  On the other hand, if we don't use these options then tlib
does the wrong thing if the lib already exists...

I wonder if it would be better to just delete the lib file prior to each
invocation of tlib?
