Yes, I am quite sure. I checked out the full cvs src tree via

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous_at_[hidden]:2401/cvsroot/boost co boost

I just did an update within this cvs image with

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous_at_[hidden]:2401/cvsroot/boost update -d

The build behavior is still as reported above, i.e. nothing is built when
invoking bjam.
