Hi!
Some of the Boost libraries have pretty contrived logic in their regression
tests. So example, if the toolset is borland, the serialization library will
check for global variable SPIRIT_ROOT, and if that's set, add its value to
<include>, and if it's not set, error out.
In V1 this is accomplished by adding a name of a rule to requirements, which
rule will be called to compute extra requirements.
The question is how to best implement this in V2. I've outlined three posible
methods in

Anybody can comment which one seems best?
