I think you need to put the relevant path there, it should be an 
absolute path.

This toolset is called clang-android, but you told b2 to use gcc-android.

-Os will be ignored because you specified -O2 below.

Remove the above two lines, since you want to use libc++, not libstdc++. 
  If clang can't find the libc++ headers, then specify the path to libc++.

Your CXXFLAGS also specify flags for include paths for libstdc++, and 
platforms/android-9, but your toolset specifies the sysroot as 
platforms/android-21.

You should try invoking b2 again with the correct toolset name and 
without any CXXFLAGS, since the toolset specifies them.
