Try putting a space between the colon and "<include>/usr/local/...".
Sorry, that was a typo in my message here. In the Jamroot file, there was a space.

I don't think this is right. Per:
http://www.boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/advanced/targets.html
the syntax is:
rule-name (
main-target-name :
sources + :
requirements * :
default-build * :
usage-requirements * )
So you should have:
exe myname
: myname.cpp
: <include>.
<include>/usr/local/include/boost-1_39/
;
You might very well be correct in this but it works fine with and without the colon (some leniency in bjam, I assume).
You need to use project requirements in user-config.jam, see:
http://www.boost.org/boost-build2/doc/html/bbv2/advanced/projects.html
For example:
project user-config : requirements <include>/usr/local/include/boost-1_39 ;
Maybe we are talking about different user-config.jam files. I have put the entry 'using darwin ;' into the user-config.jam file sitting in /usr/share/boost-build as it is a project-independent settings (as would be the location of the libraries). I would not want to put any project-specific settings in this file. But without fully understanding it, I put your above-mentioned line into the user-config.jam file, it does not work (it complains about not finding the boost library, or more specifically the specific file I included in the header of my .cpp file). Trying out:
project myprojectname : requirements <include>/usr/local/include/boost-1_39 ;
