The interaction is in the Boost.MPI library itself, which has an  
associated Python module. It's that module which is failing to build.
I'm not at all sure where the duplicate target is coming from, and  
unfortunately I can't debug it now because it's working fine for me  
on my Mac.

Chris, what platform are you building on?

Vladimir, do you see anything in the definition of lib  
boost_mpi_python in libs/mpi/build/Jamfile.v2 that looks suspicious?  
Perhaps I should copy [ mpi.extra-requirements ] down into the  
definition of lib boost_mpi_python?

        Cheers,
