Hi Michael,

If you can use tarballs instead of zips, you can use the tar.jam I wrote 
for pwiz:
http://proteowizard.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/proteowizard/trunk/pwiz/libraries/tar.jam?revision=1339&view=markup


using tar ; # default tar binary is expecting 'tar' in the PATH, so you 
must add ": <path to tar>" if necessary
import tar ;

tar.create source-tarball.tar.bz2
> a.cpp b.cpp [ glob *.h ] # sources
> <conditional>@conditional-tar-sources # use the <tar-source> feature
 <location>where-to-create-tarball
;

You use the "path-anchor:" prefix in sources to change the directory 
(the equivalent of the -C option to tar).
