Fixed, but can't commit due to repository being locked. However, you can 
easily fix the problem yourself in your local copy.

1. Change line 590 of virtual-targets.jam (where set-target-variables are 
called) to pass *all* actual targets to set-target-variables

2. Adjust the parameter list for set-target-variables to accept several 
targets.

I don't know what's up.... but seems like Jam mishandles the case where 
variable is set on only one target, while action produces two.
