* BoostBuild.Tester & TestCmd.TestCmd interfaces now accept external process parameters as a list of strings, thus avoiding problems with parsing arguments containing spaces.
* Avoided a potential process hang in case an external process being run prints out enough output to fill up the OS's pipe buffer (OS would pause the process until someone read the data from the pipe but the testing framework would not do this until the process in question had terminated).

alias foo : [ run a.cpp ] ;
and
exe main : main.cpp [ lib helpers : helpers.cpp ] ;
Now inline targets are marked explicit, so that they are not
build unless requested, and for the alias target, the names
of inline targets are not qualified by the name of top-level target.
build/
* alias.jam (alias): Pass 'no-renaming' to
target.main-target-sources.
* target.jam (main-target-sources): New parameter
'no-renaming'. Make inline target explicit.
* builtin.jam (lib): Declare 'result' variable,
to avoid implicit declaration of a global one.
tools/
* testing.jam (test-suite): Make synonymous with 'alias'.
test/
* inline.py: Adjust to the fact that alias no longer
changes names of inline targets. Check that inline
targets are explicit.
