I have found the cause of my problem but I am unsure of what it was added. In 1.54 in the virtual-target.jam file in the rule actualize-location (target) there was an added check at the beginning for scanner-target.

if $(self.action) &&* ! $(is-scanner-target)*

This new code causes LOCATE var to never be set. <snip>

<snip> This seems to be a bug in the new build with using LOCATE in the symlink.jam file when it shouldnt be used and instead SEARCH var should be used.

Symlink code needs to be update in ln rule to look in SEARCH as well as LOCATE
