Thank you Stephan,
I followed your step-by-step procedure and successfully build my project
outside boost directories. For my test I use this Jamfile

use-project boost
  : $(BOOST_ROOT)
  ;

project boost/my_library
 : build-dir bin.v2
 ;

import quickbook ;

xml test
    :
        test.qbk
    ;

boostbook standalone
    :
        test
    :
        <xsl:param>toc.max.depth=3
        <xsl:param>toc.section.depth=3
        <xsl:param>chunk.section.depth=3
    ;

exe prova : main.cpp ;

When you write
project boost/my_library
do you mean to define a library inside the project boost???

It seems that the fundamental line is use-project boost, because when I
eliminate it, I got the following error

Building Boost.Regex with the optional Unicode/ICU support disabled.
Please refer to the Boost.Regex documentation for more information
(don't panic: this is a strictly optional feature).

which is exactly what I got before you reveal me your procedure.

I hope to have time to study closer Boost.Build and, moreover, to write a
decent library for Boost project..
