There's no switch yet. I think that since printing root is for
troubleshooting, we should not include it to --version output.
There's --debug-configuration switch, which so far interpreted by msvc.jam
only and tell where it find compiler.
Maybe, the same switch can cause Boost.Build to print where it found
boost-build.jam and directory from where Boost.Build is loaded? What do you
think?
