BTW, we'll be able to solve this outstanding bug:
http://zigzag.cs.msu.su/boost.build/ticket/16
In short, with target alternatives the requirements play two roles:
- they are used to select one alternative
- they are also used to affect build properties.
This causes some problems, and we can use new "when" keyword (or some other),
to indicate properties used for just alternative selection.
