I have another question: What exactly does <find-shared-library> do? Does  
it automatically define and use a lib target like:

lib xy : : <name>xy <link>shared ;

Once I know what it does I'll add it to the feature reference at  
http://www.highscore.de/cpp/boostbuild/index.html#feature_reference  
(another attempt to make using bjam and Boost.Build a bit easier).
