Bad rules in bjam

Hi folks!
I found out that two major rules (from "allyourbase.jam") differ from
classic Jam
and can't work with full power (with gcc on solaris8-x86 at least).
*	Thus 'EXE' rule doesn't allow you linking with 3-rd party library
(flag LINKFLAGS is ignored).
*	'Main' rule skips compilation phase, though it's declared in the
same allyourbase.jam:
# Main image : source ;                 link executable from compiled
sources
Anyone experienced this?
P.S. 
I had to built bjam since distribution doesn't have a pre-built version for
solaris8-x86.
