Boost-Build :

Hello,
currently, a Jamfile can request that another project be build with

build-project path-to-some-other-project ;

however, the same effect can be obtained with

alias other : path-to-some-other-project ;

The second syntax also allows to use project id (and not only project
directory, see http://zigzag.cs.msu.su:7814/scarab/issues/id/BB37).

What if we declare 'build-project' deprecated and eventually remove it?
