3271	Use of --prefix doesn't prevent creation of /usr/local/include/boost	Braden McDaniel <braden@…>		"When building with:
{{{
$ ./bjam --prefix=$HOME --layout=system variant=release link=shared threading=multi -d+2 -q install
}}}

... I'm seeing:
{{{
common.mkdir /usr/local/include/boost

        mkdir -p ""/usr/local/include/boost""
    
mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/local/include/boost': Permission denied
}}}

Given that `--prefix` has been set to `$HOME`, it seems like an error that the build is even trying to create `/usr/local/include/boost`.
