Thread: alias rule

Hi,

as far as I understand, and have verified through testing,
the alias rule 
only adds a local alias (i.e. it can only be used within the
same Jamfile).

I've been trying to reuse an alias within a project
hierarchy without 
success, e.g. (from the manual):

alias threads : /boost/thread//boost_thread :
<link>static ;

Is there some way to access the alias "threads"
from sub-projects? I'd like 
to ensure that all projects within a hierarchy use the same
build settings 
for some common libraries (if they use them).

// Johan
