Please open darwin.jam, and locate the line that reads:

         # Build 3-way binary
           options = -arch i386 -arch ppc -arch x86_64 ;

Before it, add

        ECHO "FORCING 3-WAY BINARY $(osx-version)" ;

and try again. If that message is printed, copy-paste is here so that
I know what the version is. Either you're actually on 1.6, or the
logic that decides that you're on it is fauly in unobvious way.
