Sure we can! The test box I use have "touch" as part of bcc install, so I 
haven't caugth this problem.

I've changed the relevant portion to:

MAKE_FILE = [ common.file-creation-command ] ;

toolset.flags testing.unit-test LAUNCHER <testing.launcher> ;
actions unit-test 
{
$(LAUNCHER) $(>) && $(MAKE_FILE) $(<)
}

And will commit it as soon as SF CVS access works again ;-)
