I think this thread mostly contain what is needed starting with Stevens 
post 08/01/2013.

The fact that we need to disable everything that is specific for the 
modularized layout when building in the monolithic layout complicates 
the process of proceeding.  I imagine that some test may be used as a 
config step that allow new or changed rules to be conditioned or targets 
to be disabled.

There are changes that may need to be done as changes in library 
specific jam files, these seem to be very few and could probably be 
modified so they work in both layouts.

I _may_ be able to spend some time this weekend, but no promise. 
Nevertheless, I really need advice as to best way to proceed as my b2 
hacking is not even close to being based on b2 knowledge.
