BoostBook & Jam issues

There are some little, pesky issues with the BoostBook tools I'd like to
resolve at some point, but am a little lost after having been away from
BBv2 so long:

1) catalog.xml: I'm create a file-target with a custom action that creates
this file. However, I would like to overwrite the file each time. If I
could just get to the target I would add "ALWAYS $(target) ;" and that
should do it, but how?

2) html/*.html: Checking out $BOOST_ROOT/doc/html from CVS leaves all of
the .html files in there read-only, breaking documentation generation. I'd
like to either mark these files writable or just delete them all.

3) Does anyone remember why we commented out the "using boostbook ;" in
user-config.jam?
