Well, you can add

        include=/whatever/path

to bjam, but that's wrong solution. It appears that your compiler is misconfigured -- 
it should find its own headers without problems. You generally should be able to
invoke the compiler by hand on a C++ file, and have headers found automatically.
Maybe, there are some configuration tweaks you need to do? Or maybe, the
binary you run:

    /home/spease/overo-oe/tmp/cross/armv7a/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/bin/g++

is somehow not the right, and there's another properly installed tree?
