Regardless of the main topic of this discussion, this statement needs fixing.
First, "bjam-based" is technically wrong -- we use Boost.Build,
and not some random other thing that happens to use bjam. Second, why is 'standard'
quoted -- does that mean that 'standard' is not right term? I would suggest something
like

        "Only Boost.Build is officially supported."

will be more accurate.
