[Boost-build] Variant Builds do not mangle library names

Subject: [Boost-build] Variant Builds do not mangle library names

I am building the boost libraries on Centos using the command below

./bjam link=static threading=multi variant=debug toolset=gcc install

Previously when I built Boost on windows it mangled the output library names to represent the different properties of the build. mt for multithreaded d for debug etc  etc.
But the library names are not mangled at all ie: libboost_signals.so .

When I try to add multiple properties like threading=single,multi the build chokes on duplicate output names - this seems to be related. Using the latest 1.43.

How do I configure the build to work as expected? Help appreciated!

Using the latest 1.43.
