Message:

Updated Boost Build's internal testing system to reduce wait times between successive build system runs depending on the supported path modification timestamp resolution. This reduces the total time needed to run the current test suite on one Windows PC from cca. 8 to cca. 6 minutes.

Additional consequences:

• Makes the test system work correctly even should it ever be run with files stored on different file systems with different supported minimal path modification timestamp resolutions, e.g. NTFS (<1 ms) & FAT (2 sec).
• When requesting a new file to be written with a large enough file modification timestamp, any missing folders created in the process are created with large enough modification timestamp as well.
• Source paths with modification timestamps set too far in the future will now be reported as test environment errors instead of causing the test system to wait for some possibly long (all internal sleeps now limited to 5 seconds).
