Robert,

are you talking about the names of library files that are actually
produced, or about the names that autolink is trying to use?

If the former, then VERSION in Jamroot set it, and there's
no way how building in the same tree will get different version
numbers.

If the latter, you'd have to clean and then build every single
file in your project. One file that was compiled with old settings,
and you get old library pulled it.

HTH,
