I've created a proof-of-concept garbage collected BJam. It seems to be 
working (at least it can be used to compile itself).

Right now only Windows+MSVC combination is supported, but it should work 
fine on POSIX systems.

How to use:
1. Download http://scb.udsu.ru/~cyberax/gc-bjam.zip
2. Unpack it to $(BJAM_SOURCE)/gc-build folder
3. Copy files from $(BJAM_SOURCE)/gc-build/patched folder to $(BJAM_SOURCE).
4. Run bjam --v2 in $(BJAM_SOURCE)/gc-build folder. It should 
successfully compile your new garbage-collected BJam and place it to 
'dist' folder.
5. Replace your existing BJam with the patched one.
6. Test it!
