After reading Apple docs, it seems that the above naming style is exactly
the style one should use. 

Because of that, I've modified Boost's top-level Jamfile.v2 to avoid adding
the suffix. This should fix your problem with XCode.

However, there's yet another question -- the library still includes version 
number (between library name and "dylib"). That will require that you update
your XCode projects when Boost version change. Is that a problem to you?

If yes, I can introduce a way to control naming style with a property (as 
opposed to command line switch). Just say a word ;-)
