I just found a "fix", at least for my testproject. Including the Boost
libs *before* my own testlib. So it seems when testlib is loaded the
parameters are already set by the configuration that is included with
the Boost.Log Jamfile.

I'll post an updated version of this thread to the Boost.Build ML since
I don't think the project include order should matter (or is always
controllable).

Thanks for your help again,
Norbert
