self.command_cleanup() is being called at line 586 without arguments, and that defaults to deleting boost_root at line 262.

Beyond the question of why command_cleanup() is being called without arguments in the first place, isn't there is a second problem? When command_cleanup is called without arguments, it first deletes boost_root, and then deletes three directories, two of which are in boost_root. Shouldn't the if 'source'... and if 'bin'... blocks of code be reversed?
