No, this is the result of BCP not changing jamfiles where necessary.
On second thought, my original "easy fix" wasn't really a fix at all.
I've made a PR draft for BCP that (locally for me) fixes the problem.
The PR is https://github.com/boostorg/bcp/pull/23. I don't know if it
creates some other problems, though. Please, try and report any issues
in the PR.
