-  # I had a file, say a1.c, that was included into liba.a. 
-  # I moved a1.c to a2.c, updated my Jamfiles and rebuilt.

-  # Originally removing the archive was done by splicing an RM
-  # onto the archive action. That makes archives fail to build on NT
-  # when they have many files because it will no longer execute the
-  # action directly and blow the line length limit. Instead we
-  # remove the file in a different action, just before the building
-  # of the archive.
