There is a regression on boost.test on Windows while the code did not 
change, due to the fact that b2 now have longer paths:

This is what I have for last develop:
..\..\..\bin.v2\libs\test\test\user-defined-types-logging-customization-points.test\msvc-9\debug\threadapi-win32\threading-multi\writing-test-ts\user-defined-types-logging-customization-points.obj.rsp

This is what I have for new feature branches:
..\..\..\bin.v2\libs\test\test\user-defined-types-logging-customization-points.test\msvc-9\debug\threading-multi\writing-test-ts\user-defined-types-logging-customization-points.obj

(threadapi-win32 has been added)

The error says
"
failed to write output file 
'..\..\..\bin.v2\libs\test\test\user-defined-types-logging-customization-points.test\msvc-9\debug\threadapi-win32\threading-multi\writing-test-ts\user-defined-types-logging-customization-points.obj.rsp'!
"

The base folder of my CI is D:\bamboo_build_dir\SW-BCB125-VC2008WIN, and 
the builds that fail are VS2008, VS2013, VS2015, VS2017.

Would it be possible to revert this change, such that I can use my CI 
and focus on the code?

Thanks,
Raffi
