For the cwpro8 toolset on the format and io_state regression tests, bjam
formulates paths incorrectly. For example, a compile command line includes:

-o "C:\boost\site>format_test3.obj"

instead of something like:

-o
"d:\boost-regr\bin\boost\libs\format\test\format_test3.test\cwpro8\debug\format_test3.obj"

In other words, ALL_LOCATE_TARGET is not being prepended. Instead, a path
corresponding to the current working directory plus a bogus ">" character
is being prepended.

The bulk of all cwpro8 tests work fine.

The format and io_state Jamfiles haven't changed in a long time. The
toolset hasn't changed recently either. The problem may have started about
a week ago; since the tests weren't being run due to other factors it is
hard to say exactly when the break occurred.
