There are two issues here:

1) I think you will need to run the configure script to configure the
library (Differing Dinkumware lib editions are really automatically
detectable)
2) There is no Jam toolset - you can either write your own (and tell us
about it), or just build using your favourite IDE or whatever - remember
that only a minority of boost libs require building anyway, most can be used
as headers alone.
