Right, I did not think of this very common case either. Having a full 
debug build is often not quite what you want, you usually only compile 
those parts with DEBUG you're currently working on; otherwise system 
output could get way too noisy.
Any idea about that?

The only one that comes to my mind is to introduce another variable 
that lets you override the target directory for those components, ie. 
somelike like either:
$ DEBUG=1 TARGET_TYPE=release jam
or:
$ DEBUG=1 RELEASE_TARGET=1 jam

Bye,
