Hi,
I've just made a couple of changes.

First, I've introduced the <source> feature, which Dave suggested some time
ago. The semantic is very simple

exe a : : <source>a.cpp <source>some_lib ;

is always the same as

exe a : a.cpp some_lib ;

At the same time, the <library> feature, which had effect only on linking
generator, was changed to be exactly equivivalent to <source>.

I'm not planning to deprecate <library>, since it's heavily used. However,
I'll probably use only <source> in documentation.

If this change breaks anything, or there are comments, please let me know.
