OK, thanks for bearing with me Gennadiy.  I fixed it for
cwpro8-tools.jam.  metrowerks-tools.jam (pro7) would require more work
to figure out the right runtime libs to select to go along with a
-D_DEBUG on the command-line.  I'm not too worried about that at the
moment, since it's an old toolset, but it's a soluble problem.
