Because I run the boost regression tests like this

python regression.py --runner="Sandia-gcc" --mail=kbelco_at_[hidden] -- 
bjam-toolset=gcc --pjl-toolset=gcc --toolsets="gcc-3.4.3,gcc-4.0.1" -- 
bjam-options=-j4

So bjam is clearly building / running both named_recursive tests at  
the same time.  Am I not permitted to run the boost regression tests  
for multiple toolsets in a single invocation?
