Yes. As the absence of those options in the subdirs was the only reason 
I added those targets.

I think the only ones I currently rely on are the install targets in 
tools/Jamfile.v2. So I'll have to investigate if it's possible to get 
the equivalent just using "bjam --v2 install" and then those can also be 
removed.
