The 'alias' rule passes 'no-rename' to main-target-sources,
and targets.create-metatarget does not, presently, support
that. As result:
alias a :
[ python-extension xxx ]
[ bpl-test yyy : xxx ]
;
Does not work since 'xxx' gets renamed to a..xxx.
We obviously need to handle 'no-rename', but for now,
just revert the patch.

Without this patch, if a Jamfile uses $(__name__).some-rule
for example as generator id, the rule would not be
actually called if Jamfile's path included a dot.
[SVN r59862]
In particular, this fixes problems on windows where project.load
may be passed a path from Jamfile, and then load-jamfile may use
a path using the exact case as stored in the file system -- different
from the path passed to project.load.

Patch from Spencer E. Olson.
Here's the explanation from email:
The version of pathscale that I have access to is 3.2 and there doesn't seem
to be a pathf77 executable. The man pages do not reference it, and there is
also not a -f77 option that specifies that the code is fortran 77. Rather,
the man pages indicate that pathscale only recognizes the difference between
free form and fixed form fortran instead of F77 vs F90 vs F95.
Does anyone have an available installation that differs from this? If not,
I'll submit another small patch for changing this to using pathf90 to compile
f77 code--I've tested it and it appears to work well enough.

how all libraries shipped with mingw are named. Further, we previously
used libwhatever.lib, and the linker never searched for this spelling.

Some MPI implementation report -lpthread in the compilation flags. Previously,
we'd add -lpthread, but did not set threading=multi, as we really should.
One manifestation of this issue is that when building with such an MPI,
and requesting "threading=single threading=multi", we'd actually try
to build two variants of everything, including "mpi.so" Python extension.
And since Python extensions, at present, do not have their name adjusted
for different variants, we'd get duplicate target name error.
