Those [] are part of the debug output (-d+4) to tell exactly what is 
being fed to the exec functions. Everything in between them is what's 
getting executed. If I remember correctly it's a problem with a 
particular version of bjam. What version are you using?

FYI, when I build with MinGW (the independent one not the one in DevC++) 
it builds with intermediate BAT files.
