Here is the commit message for revision 86392: Add Boost.Build support for the Git modular layout, using links to to new header locations, thus preventing breakage to vast amounts of user code and build setups. Being added to SVN so that changes will automatically propagate to Git and modular Boost. Thanks to Steven Watanabe, Jürgen Hunold, Vladimir Prus, and Bjørn Roald for developing this patch. Steven in particular conceived the approach and did the initial implementation, which was further refined by the other contributors. In theory this commit won't break any existing boost builds. To verify that, on Win 7 and Ubunto I've done a fresh SVN checkout of trunk and verified bootstrap.bat, bootstrap.sh, and a b2 build work both before and after the patch is applied. On Windows, I verified that after the patch is applied a b2 build using an unpatched prior compilation of b2 still works. These tests increase confidence that committing the patch to trunk now isn't likely to cause breakage, but please post to this list right away if you spot any build breakage or other odd behavior. The files modified are listed below.
