3814,bjam special cases --pythonXXX options?,smr@…,René Rivera,"The bjam shipped with Boost 1.41 generally ignores unrecognized options; e.g. ""./bootstrap.sh; ./bjam --blabla"" will build everything just fine.  However, if I pass ""--pythonbla"", I get a very mysterious failure:
{{{
steve@riemann{boost}./bjam --pythonbla
Boost.Build V2 Python port (experimental)
/home/steve/Packages/boost/upstream/testing/trunk/boost/tools/build/v2/kernel/bootstrap.jam:223: in boost-build
rule PYTHON_IMPORT_RULE unknown in module
/home/steve/Packages/boost/upstream/testing/trunk/boost/boost-build.jam:17: in module scope
}}}

Why is this?  This was not the behaviour in 1.40.

This breaks the ""--pythonid"" patch we use in Debian; c.f. https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/3544
