Scratch that comment.  This was a red herring.  These changes exposed
a latent bug in some Jamfiles where sources were under-specified and
it was blithely receiving includes thanks to the built tools.  Sorry
for the misdirection.

It looks like this approach will work for me.  I'm doing some clean
builds all around.

Thanks!
