Good <time-of-day>!

Today I've finished wxWidgets.jam module. It wasn't easy, size of the
wxWidgets.jam is now 40Kb (thanks to some wxWidgets idiosyncrasies) and
lack of good documentation on BJam didn't help either.

But now wxWidgets applications can be easily built :) For example, this
is the Jamroot file for the "checklst" sample in wxWidgets distribution:
========================
exe checklst : checklst.cpp checklst.rc
        /wxWidgets//wx-base/<link>shared/<wx-unicode>off
        /wxWidgets//wx-core/<link>shared/<wx-unicode>off
        : <user-interface>gui ;
========================

I'm still not happy with some hacks, so I'll post wxWidgets.jam as soon
as I fix them.

Right now I have some questions:
1. Is there any tool for code documentation (like Doxygen)?
2. Why <native-wchar_t> was removed?
3. Is there any support for reading property files (list of "name=value"
strings)? I've built my own but I don't like it.
4. What is the status of precompiled headers support?
