   Invalid modifiers.jam module dropped, together with the accompanying 
unfinished 'versioned' example in revision [80557].

   http://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/changeset/80557

   And as for the <version> feature - perhaps someone else can help. I 
am not sure what this feature was supposed to do in the first place, and 
do not have time at the moment to go researching the invalid 
modifiers.jam module to try and reconstruct its original intent.

   Hope this helps.

   Best regards,
