Refering to versioned boost libraries from Jamfiles requires toolset specific library specification.
I suggest a mechanism, which should allow to specify a canonical form of a boost library in the requirements section of e.g. an exe taget.
The build system should take care to expand the canonical name to the decorated one that is compatible with the current build settings.
The mechanism should allow to specify the lib version to use, and whether to link with a dynamic or static version of the respective library.
