I think this structure should work in principle. It certainly does in a
equivalent with gcc I use. However the addition ';' in the line
<variant>debug ;
may be sufficiently confusing bjam.
Even more confusing if I cut and paste the text from you original mail it
drives jam crazy. I traces this to non printing characters in the blank
spaces with hex code C2 and A0. Of course this could just be my mail client!
