Do you mean that bjam 3.1.3 works but the CVS version does not? And this 
happens on cygwin? This might have to do with GLOB changes: all filenames
are downcased on Windows. Could you please try saying

JAMFILE = [Jj]amfile.v2 ;

in your boost-build.jam instead of just

JAMFILE = Jamfile.v2 ;

?

Thanks,
