Subject: [boost] [1.39.0] Confusing directions in bootstrap.sh

I used the --libdir= and --includedir= options when invoking bootstrap.sh.
 When bootstrap.sh finishes, it says to run './bjam', but when I did so,
it didn't use the libdir and includedir I specified. Only when I ran
'./bjam install' did it do what I expected. I think bootstrap.sh should
be changed to indicate that the 'install' argument is necessary.
