The boost-build.jam file from the sandbox
(http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox/guild/boost-build.jam) needs
to be updated for the new layout of boost build. This is out of date:

local boost-build-src = [ if-has-file bootstrap.jam :
    [ MATCH --boost-build=(.*) : $(ARGV) ]
    $(BOOST_BUILD_PATH)
    $(BOOST_BUILD)
    $(boost-src)/tools/build/v2
    ] ;

'/v2' is no longer required in the path, and 'bootstrap.jam' is in a
different directory now. Changing it to this might work:

local boost-build-src = [ if-has-file bootstrap.bat :
    [ MATCH --boost-build=(.*) : $(ARGV) ]
    $(BOOST_BUILD_PATH)
    $(BOOST_BUILD)
    $(boost-src)/tools/build
    ] ;
