building in boost-sandbox

I've added the preliminary BLAS bindings for uBLAS in the boost-sandbox as 
discussed with Joerg and Jeremy.

But also a small library should be build which should be linked with. I tried 
to add a boost-build.jam in the top-dir of the boost-sandbox and would define 
the BOOST_ROOT path as being the 'pwd' and next go to my boost-install-dir 
but that did'nt work, neither did setting the BOOST_ROOT env.var. in the 
shell.

I got following error (note that the second line is just an echo of the 
$(BOOST_ROOT) in boost-build.jam to verify if it takes the correct path).

poisson:/usr/local/boost-sandbox-tknapen/boost-sandbox >bjam
/usr/local/boost
Unable to load Boost.Build: could not find build system.
---------------------------------------------------------
/usr/local/boost-sandbox-tknapen/boost-sandbox/boost-build.jam attempted to 
load the build system by invoking

'boost-build tools/build ;'

but we were unable to find "bootstrap.jam" in the specified directory
or in BOOST_BUILD_PATH (searching 
/usr/local/boost-sandbox-tknapen/boost-sandbox/tools/build).

Please consult the documentation at 'http://www.boost.org'.
