One project, two libs, two files with same filename?

Hi!

I just recently discovered Boost build (v2). To learn how it works I 
have played with some small examples. In the Jamfile below my intention 
is to declare two libraries and one main executable. It seems bb cannot 
build this because both libraries depend on two different files but 
with identical names. If one of the open.cpp is renamed to open2.cpp bb 
builds both open.o and open2.o in the bin/gcc/debug sub directory. Is 
the really how it is supposed to be? Shouldn't the .o files be placed 
in seperate directories foo1 and foo2? Surely two different libraries 
in the same project must be able to depend on different but identically 
named source files. Maybe this can be solved with sub projects or 
something, but, I really like to keep things as simple as possible. Any 
comments on this matter are welcom.

# Jamfile
lib libfoo1 : foo1/open.cpp ;
lib libfoo2 : foo2/open.cpp ;
exe main : main.cpp ;
