[boost-build] Unable to use build-type=complete on linux

Hi,

The release branch won't compile on linux when "--build-type=complete" is used because that option isn't compatible with "--layout=system", which is now the default. I expected this command would work:

$ bjam --build-type=complete install

Can Boost.Build automatically use "--layout=versioned" (or tagged) in the above case instead of giving this error?

The difference between versioned and tagged layouts isn't clear to me, so a docs link in the error message would help.

Added a trac ticket for this: #3467

Regards,
Darren
