[Boost.Build questions should go to the jamboost list]

Anyway, is it a fixed directory that you want in the library search
path, does it depend on the installation, or is it always someplace
relative to the rest of the toolset installation? Should it always go
in the library path for this toolset, or only when building
Boost.Python targets?
