[Boost-build] bjam assertion failure

I was getting crashes on windows with --build-dir=%TEMP%\build, so I
built a debugging version of bjam and ran it.  It asserted with an
invalid time value.

In _findnext64i32, it was looking at a file called %TEMP%\~du185.tmp,
which had a bogus timestamp from the year 1720.  It seems to me we
ought to be able to do something to avoid being brought to our knees
because of something like that.
