   Try running bjam with some or all of the following command line 
parameters:

   --debug-building ... displays the exact properties used by Boost 
Build when building specific targets. Check this to see if the used 
<include> properties contains the folder you expect.

   -d+2 ... displays the actual command used. Check this to see if the 
include path passed to the compiler contains the folder you expect.

   --debug-configuration ... displays information on your toolset 
configuration. Check this to see if you configured your Python toolset 
as expected.

   If that does not help, post a small self-contained example 
reproducing the problem to this mailing list and hopefully someone can 
help you debug it.

   Hope this helps.

   Best regards,
