Hi John,

Thanks for your advice. It did force bjam to include the header 
files from my specified STLport version. However, the build process 
still relies on the LD_LIBRARY_PATH env variable to be set 
to /opt/STLport.4.6.2/lib to pick up the right version of 
stlport .so library. 

It would be nice if bjam can automatically pick the right library 
using either -L option or full path name to the stlport .so library 
since the location and version of STLport has been provided.
