Discuss the build tool Jam with other users

Howdy,

[see dir structure below]

If I cd into /top, everythings works as planned.  But if I cd into
/top/exec, it can't find targets libfoo or libbar.
I want to be able to run jam from /top/exec, and have it find (and
potentially update) libfoo and libbar.

I see two solutions.  One, make libfoo and libbar globally defined.  Or, I
could try to include libfoo's and libbar's Jamfile from exec's Jamfile.
This will take some work, because I think we'll need to put "header guards"
in the library's Jamfiles.
I don't want to globally define them; it won't scale.

Any suggestions?

# Example directory structure
/top/exec
/top/libfoo
/top/libbar

# Jamfile in /top/exec
SubDir TOP exec ;
Main exec : main.c ;
LinkLibraries exec : libfoo libbar ;

# Jamfile in /top
SubDir TOP ;
SubInclude TOP exec ;
