The Jam command line ends with an optional list of target names; if no target names are supplied, the built-in pseudotarget all is built. In a large project, naming targets can be dicey because of collisions. Jam - uses a mechanism called grist to distinguish targets - that would otherwise have the same name.

That means that if an executable is dependent on an external library, and that library changes, all the sources comprising the executable will be recompiled as well. This behavior should probably be fixed.
