When scanning directories and creating a list of all their content (filent.c) it would identify all the located files and folders using their long file names. On the other hand, referencing a target using its short file name inside a Jam script caused Boost Jam to reference those files twice using two separate TARGET structures - one identified using the file's short name and one using the file's long name.
One bad example was the MkDir which would always attempt to create a folder identified by its short name even if that folder already existed (due to the NOUPDATE rule getting applied on the incorrect TARGET).
The change does not affect targets whose names do not represent existing file names.
Also, it seems to me that the short_path_to_long_path() call in file_dirscan() in the filent.c module should most likely be moved to file_info() in the filesys.c module. This would make mapping file names to file_info_t & TARGET structures consistent. However, I have not done this in this patch just to make the patch as minimal as possible.
Prepared tests have been do nothing on non Windows platforms.

* BoostBuild.py; Make the matching of content and files be more loose and use pattern globbing of toolset names.
* glob.py/project_glob.py; Rename to avoid collision with builtin Python module.
* all; Update copyrights and license info.

affect the names of the generated targets and only usefull for preventing
V2 from treating two independent targets as target alternatives.

There were two problems:
- 'glob' was using __name__ as the name of the project and not
project.current, so it would search in project root, and not in child
project that inherited project root rules.
- the 'import' that's overrided in project context used __name__ to
restore the value of current project

The gcc specific generator is necessary exactly for that reason.

the problem with two equivalent targets in two different projects.

a couple of cases.
1. On Windows, DLLs are never directly linked to, so they are considered
unused and cause a warning. There used to be special code in
exe-target-class and lib-target-class to supress that warning, but this
failed for unit-test, for example, since main target class for unit test
is not related with exe-target-class. And making yet another main target
class looks ugly.
2. A target specified via project-wide <source> or <library> property is
added to sources for all targets, and cause a warning when it's not used.
However, there are valid cases to ignore such sources. For example
obj a : a.cpp : <optimization>off ;
need to comsume any libraries.
It was not clear how to fix both problems. Further, the only case when I found
the warning to be usefull is when declaring new toolsets, and it that case it
does not add much information compared to --debug-generators output. So, let's
just kill the feature for now.
