I think that's the best way for now.

I have just updated my boost trunk and rebuild bjam and the boost libs
in Debug configuration. I can see there is static library called
libz.lib in my stage folder. Is there any way we could name it
something like zlib-vc100-mt-gd-1_2_5.lib? This way I can understand
which one is Debug and Release, etc.

I'll now will try to recreate a jam file for jpeg, png, and tiff based
on what you created with zlib.jam. Do you foresee any complications?

Thanks again for your work!

Christian
