V2: build issues

Hi !

I've managed to build my applications using V2. 
All programs build by bjam V2 work. 
Great work !

But I've encountered some problems.
First, speed. bjam needs 60 minutes (yes, sixty) to produce the first 
"..patience" line. Is there a possibility to enable .jamdeps support 
for V2 ? 

Second, I've configured bjam to "default-build release" in 
toplevel-Jamfile.
When I invoke bjam --v2 debug in this directory, it tells me:

hunold_at_lin17 ~/src $ bjam debug --v2
/ive/hunold/packages/boost/tools/build/new/project.jam:504: in 
project.attribute
warning: rulename $($(project).attributes).get expands to empty string
/ive/hunold/packages/boost/tools/build/new/targets.jam:150: in 
object(project-target)@14.direct-build-request
/ive/hunold/packages/boost/tools/build/new/targets.jam:151: in 
object(project-target)@1.direct-build-request

/ive/hunold/packages/boost/tools/build/new/targets.jam:150: in 
object(project-target)@14.direct-build-request
*** argument error

boost-build

and when invoked in subdir Q2d
hunold_at_lin17 ~/src/Q2d $ bjam debug --v2
warning: skipping build of project /Q2d at .
...found 1 target...

The same message appears when using link=static.
Any ideas about this ?

Yours, 

Jürgen
