Hmm, just tried:

bjam -n -a --dump-tests toolset=borland

and the libs you list do have their tests run (which doesn't mean we 
shouldn't merge status/Jamfile.v2 changes of course, the question is whether 
to do it now).  Also those libs do have their test results showing up in the 
test matrix.

Confused yours, John.
