[Boost-build] commandline <define>

Hi All,

I have a small question regarding <define>

If I specify a define on the commandline, like
   
    bjam toolset=gcc define=BLA

I get a

    'error: Duplicate name of actual target'

on the lib(s) in the jamfile.

Bu when I specify the (exe) target, like

    bjam my-exe toolset=gcc define=BLA

there is no problem ...

What happens here? I would like to use defines on the commandline, 
because having them inside the jamfile will create a very complex jamfile.

(I use:
bjam --version
Boost.Build V2 (Milestone 11)
Boost.Jam 03.1.14

Help would be very much appriciated!

Regards, Dirk
