I seem to get the correct result using jam 2.5rc3.  Maybe it's
an FTJam problem?  Here are my results:

chrisc at fruity:~/jam_hackeries/join> cat Jamfile 
local test = aaa ;
test += bbb ;
test += ccc ;
ECHO $(test) ;      # prints: aaa bbb ccc
ECHO $(test:J=x) ;

chrisc at fruity:~/jam_hackeries/join> jam
aaa bbb ccc 
aaaxbbbxccc 
...found 7 target(s)...
chrisc at fruity:~/jam_hackeries/join> jam -v
