Besides just removing those symlinks after installation, what's the proper way for disabling creating these additional symlinks when building/installing boost using b2?
I tried `b2 install install-no-version-symlinks=on`, but it had no effect. So I guess the answer is "none". I suppose the right thing to do is to reverse the change and reinstate the original behavior to not install these symlinks on `b2 install`. I'm not quite sure about `b2 stage`, but it should probably be consistent with `b2 install`, because many packaging scripts use `stage` instead of `install` for some reason.
