Ok. I used variables to set it

user-settings.jam:
arit = <arit>double ;

and in the main Jamfile:
exe main : main.cpp test-lib : $(arit) ;

Works great. But I've found out that I am not able to build my example 
project with the library (see my previous post) just by calling 'bjam' 
on the command line. It tries to build 'test-lib' with <link>shared even 
though I have the project requirements set to <link>static. Have I 
misunderstood the 'requirements'? [building with 'bjam main' or 'bjam 
link=static' works fine, 'bjam -a' does not].
