Tried recoding lists_sort() to use qsort(). Here's the result with
modified BJAM:

$ time ~/local/bin/bjam variant=debug,release
...patience...
...patience...
...patience...
...found 13910 targets...

real    0m10.135s
user    0m9.748s
sys     0m0.353s

Vs. the original:

$ time /usr/local/bin/bjam variant=debug,release
...patience...
...patience...
...patience...
...found 13910 targets...

real    0m55.040s
user    0m54.804s
sys     0m0.209s

I'm going to try and attach a patch against SVN trunk.

Thanks again

Igor
