 For some reason, the resource compiler no longer waits for the message
 compiler output. This results in compilation failures like this:

 {{{
 msvc.compile.mc bin.v2\libs\log\build\msvc-10.0\release\debug-symbols-on
 \threading-multi\simple_event_log.h
 MC: Compiling libs\log\src\simple_event_log.mc
 ...skipped <pbin.v2\libs\log\build\msvc-10.0\release\debug-symbols-on
 \threading-multi>simple_event_log_res.obj for lack of
 <pbin.v2\libs\log\build\msvc-10.0\release\debug-symbols-on\threading-
 multi-object(res-scanner)@4128>simple_event_log.rc...
 }}}

 This is a partial compilation log from [http://sourceforge.net/projects

 /boost-log/ Boost.Log] project. You can check out trunk or branches/v1 for
 testing.

 After the (unsuccessful) compilation I can see simple_event_log.rc,
 simple_event_log.h and MSG00001.bin files in the output directory, so the
 problem is probably caused by resource compiler being invoked too soon.

 The Boost.Log Jamfile was not changed for a long time with respect to the
 .mc compilation, an it worked some time ago. Unfortunately, I cannot tell
 when it stopped working.
