1. Had to build new bjam from boost_1_31_0 jam-src.
2. Try it:
[nbecker_at_rpppc1 /usr/local/src/boost_1_31_0/libs/program_options/doc]$
PATH=/usr/local/src/boost_1_31_0/tools/build/jam_src/bin.linuxx86:$PATH
bjam --v2
/usr/local/src/boost_1_31_0/tools/build/v2/build/project.jam:213: in
load-jamfile from module project
error: Unable to load Jamfile.
Could not find a Jamfile in directory '.'.
Attempted to find it with pattern '[Jj]amfile.v2'.
Please consult the documentation at 'http://www.boost.org'.
