  I know what the problem is, but fixing it is
non-trivial. process_jam_log randomly picks
one compilation, for targets that consist of
more than one translation unit. This is a side-effect
of handling incremental builds, which discards
an existing compile log when it finds a new one.
i.e. the last one that it sees will be the only
one shown.
