Oh, that would be me :-(

I hope I have this fixed now, but now I see:

error: Unable to find file or target named
error:     '/python//python'
error: referred from project at
error:     '../libs/python/test'

>From status/Jamfile.v2

problem?

Many apologies for this: in future please just revert changes that break the 
build like this!

John.
