hello!

i would like to specify a different shell for bjam on windows xp (namely 
sh.exe).
i tried to place

JAMSHELL = C:\\Programme\\A-Toolchain\\bin\\sh.exe -c % ;

in my Jamroot file, though without success, the windows cmd "shell" gets 
called.

background: i have to invoke a shell script (wx-config) to get my 
cxxflags like that

local wx_cxxflags = [ SHELL "wx-config --cxxflags | tr -d '\\n'" ] ;

regards,
gerhard
