You did not say *what* you're compiling. I'm about to presume this
is SVN head.

Tobias, it appears that libs/function_types/build/Jamfile, written
by you, requires to have 'wave' built and installed to $BOOST_ROOT/dist.
In turn, top-level Jamroot sees your Jamfile and tries to build
whatever is there. I suspect this is not desired, so maybe you
can put a bunch of 'explicit' lines there so that targets are only
built when explicitly requested on command line?
