[Boost-build] build variant output directory

Hello,
I was just wondering if there is some way of defining a variant's
build output directory.  The current build output directory nesting is
just to deep for my project.  Since I only have one debug variant and
one release variant having a simple build output directory like:

bin/debug
bin/release

would completely suffice.  But instead boost build insists on storing
everything in directories based on the selected feature set:

bin\msvc-8.0\debug\threading-multi
bin\msvc-8.0\release\debug-symbols-on\threading-multi

Also notice the additional debug-symbols-on in the release build path
since I selected to enable debug symbols for release builds.

Regards,
Sebastian
