Yes, of course, I was a little sloppy.

Perhaps what irritates me is "error" and "fail", which might mean: stop
everything, which in case of building a larger set of independent
targets is too limiting.

What I would prefer instead is to put <build>no into the build
in this case. E.g when building the install target of boost this
would not stop everything but simply skip building this single
variant.

I don't know if this is possible however...
