I'm writing a Jamfile.v2 for some tests. I have two test suites, like:

   import testing ;

   {
       test-suite blah : [ run stuff.cpp ] ;
   }

   {
       test-suite blah-ext : [ run experimental.cpp ] ;
   }

Now, I'd like only the blah test suite to run by default, and I want
blah-ext to run only if I explicitly request it. The BBv2 docs led me to
believe "explicit" would help me, and I believed it! Sadly, it seems not
to be the case. Regardless of where I put the "explicit blah-ext ;"
line, the blah-ext test suite always runs, whether I ask for it or not.

What have I overlooked?
