Boost.Jam tasks for 3.1.5...

Some organizational items... Here's a TODO list for Boost.Jam.

* Remove the hacked Jambase from FTJam with a wrapped version of the
Perforce Jambase to bring back more compatability with the stock Jam.
- Difficulty: EASY.

* Implement an "output = SYSTEM ( command args * )" builtin. Usefull for
doing things like detection of default compilers and their availablity. Also
usefull for building lists of source files more complicated than possible
with GLOB. The one usecase I have for the later is building wxWindows.
- Difficulty: HARD?

* Add the timming output Beman wants for the basic build actions.
- Difficulty: MEDIUM.

* Per Dave's suggestions, debugging support.
- Difficulty: HARD?

Any others? Comments?
