OK, thanks. How can I now force all my exe's to link with all 'libs' 
(using the project rule).
I tried in my top-Jamfile:

<Jamfile>
# get values of MY_SYSTEM_* as defined in my user-config.jam
LIBS = [ modules.peek : MY_SYSTEM_LIBS ] ;
LIB_PATH = [ modules.peek : MY_SYSTEM_PATH ] ;

lib $(LIBS) : : <search>$(LIB_PATH) ;

project
: requirements
<include>$(INCLUDE_PATH)
<library>$(LIBS)
;
</Jamfile>

with my user-config.jam like this

<user-config.jam>
modules.poke : MY_SYSTEM_LIBS : readline pthread m g2c ;
modules.poke : MY_SYSTEM_PATH : /usr/local/lib ;
</user-config.jam>

But bjam now gives me following error :

error: Unable to find file or target named
error: 'readline'
error: referred from project at
error: '../../../modules/utilities/test'
