Although I think a clear priorization scheme for the paths would be 
nicer (see my other posts), I found an easier solution that has the same 
effect (without the need to modify jam source):

In boost-build.jam of boost root prepend the call to boost-build rule with:
BOOST_BUILD_PATH = ;

This will wipe out any other paths and make the intent clear to use the 
build system that is hosted in the current boost tree from where the 
bjam command is being invoked.
