My understanding of the use-case is: suppose you are using
Boost.Build to build a project that contains a library
as well as an executable linked with that lib.  If the
library is built as a shared object, the hardcode-dll-paths
lets you build and run the executable in-place.


I'm Cc'ing the bug submitter for further clarification.

Regards,
-Steve
