Ops, I have missed it.

You can specify the 5-th parameter (it is output directory) of the 
file-target command:

     rule run ( project name ? : property-set : sources * )
     {
         if ! $(sources[2])
         {
             local t = [ $(sources[1]).type ] ;
             local n = [ $(sources[1]).name ] ;
             if $(t) = CLS
             {
                local w = [ os.environ WRAPPER_DIR ] ;
                n = $(n:B) ;

                 local a = [ new action $(sources[1]) : wrapper.gensrc : 
$(property-set) ] ;

                 local t1 = [ new file-target $(n) : CPP : $(project) : 
$(a) : $(w) ] ;
                 local t2 = [ new file-target $(n) : H : $(project) : 
$(a) : $(w) ] ;

                 return [ virtual-target.register $(t1) ]
                        [ virtual-target.register $(t2) ] ;

             }
         }
     }

BR,
Anatoly.
