What I did with the hack was totally dumb! Thanks for the help. I
fixed it simply by added a new line in my ccsimpc.jam file
type.set-generated-target-suffix EXE : <toolset>ccsimpc : out ;

This is, again, because of the bad hack consequence. I tried "bjam
toolset=ccsimpc" and the build broke, that's why I thought I'd have to
change those files. It's working well now with the proper suffix set.

Thanks so much for your time.
