Vladimir -
What would be the proper way to make this compile from the top directory? I believe I can add bhome as a default include path to all subprojects, but I don't know the syntax.
I'm still confused as to why I can't build from the top dir, when bhome is properly included in the sub-project's Jamfile?
Thanks,

Whenever you want to use 'bhome'. There's no difference whatsoever between
Jamroot and Jamfile except that Jamroot inherit properties from
user-config.jam,
while Jamfile -- from Jamfile/Jamroot in a parent directory.
