[Boost-build] Regression tests failures

Rene,
on CVS HEAD I observe a few test failures that might be related to your 'glob 
for toolset name' patch. For example, prebuilt.py fails. That test uses:

        t.expand_toolset("ext/Jamfile")

to change $toolset in Jamfile to the actual toolchain name, so that it can 
refer to rebuild binaries. Apparently, $toolset gets replaced with 
just 'gcc', while the binary path has gcc-4.0.3, so the test fails.

Any ideas how to handle this? Maybe we should, instead of globbing, detect the 
used version of gcc early in BoostBuild.py and then just it it?

Thanks,
Volodya
