[Boost-build] Question about location for new toolsets

Hi,

I'm currently developing a new sprng toolset for BBv2 for  
Boost.Random-conforming wrappers for the SPRNG library of parallel  
random number generators. The attached sprng.jam file works if I  
place it ether in the tools/build/v2/tools directory of my main Boost  
tree or if I keep it locally in the same location as the Jamfile from  
which I am using it. However if I import the file from another  
directory (e.g. import ../sprng.jam) then any call like

if [ sprng.initialized ]

fails because sprng is not known. My question is whether I'm doing  
something wrong here?
