   OK, please to try to trim down your project to the smallest possibly 
size still reproducing the problem. Just keep removing target after 
target until the problem disappears for the first time.

   If that still does not reduce it down to something you can freely 
distribute, I guess we could try it the slow & painful way... we prepare 
a test build and you run it and tell us the results... :-)

   Or you can play with the code in tools/jam/src/execnt.c yourself.
