The simplest approach is probably:

make destionation : x : $(__name__).cp-r : <location>. ;

actions cp-r
{
cp -r $(>) $(<)
}

which results in:

$ bjam -n
Jamfile</home/ghost/Work/boost/tools/build/v2/example/copy_tree>.cp-r
destionation

cp -r x destionation

But that does not care if individual files are modified or not. I'll see
about making 'stage' work fine for recursive operations.
