Subject: [Boost-build] more bjam questions

Here are two (more) questions about bjam internals:

1) what mechanism does bjam use to set up directories into which any
target files are being built ? Is there an implicit rule that is being
invoked for this to work automagically ?

2) Is there a mechanism to have bjam clean up intermediate files ? For
example, if I Use the `exe foo : foo.cpp ;` rule, there will be an
intermediate `foo.o` file generated. Can I instruct bjam to remove that
automatically in the process once `foo` is created ?

Thanks,

        Stefan
