Comment:

 I build on my Mac OS X box frequently; until quite recently (last month),
 I used a PPC box running 10.4.11.
 My user-config.jam contains a single line:
           import toolset : using ; using darwin ;

 and it seems to work just fine.

 What problems, exactly, are you having?

 P.S. The jam files for darwin have been significantly changed for 1.36.0
 (thanks to Mat Marcus from Adobe and others) to build universal binaries,
 etc.
