The culprit is this line (allyourbase.jam:1028):

HDRS on $(<) = [ unique $(LOCATE_SOURCE) $(SEARCH_SOURCE) $(HDRS) ] ;

which adds SEARCH_SOURCE to HDRS. You might try

HDRS on $(<) = [ unique $(LOCATE_SOURCE) $(HDRS) ] ;

instead. I can't promise this won't destabilize something. If there's a
problem for the Python library, I can try to work around it.
