What I read was the one you posted about a while back... It's
obviously different than the one in
http://boost.org/more/getting_started/unix-variants.html now.

./configure is being described to be used along with make. I was under
the impression that it could be used with Boost.Jam, and so I was
looking for a combo which did the following:

$ ./configure --your-options
$ bjam stage

Instead of the seemingly (and actually) more complicated:

$ bjam --build-dir=/tmp/build-boost --toolset=gcc stage

Or am I understanding it wrong?
