Thank you, that worked!

Is it documented somewhere in Boost.Build docs? If so, I must have overlooked it, otherwise it would be nice to mention this in
http://www.boost.org/doc/tools/build/doc/html/bbv2/overview/jam_language.html
or
http://www.boost.org/doc/tools/build/doc/html/bbv2/overview/invocation.html

Best regards,
