With --version, I get:

cd ~/prog_dev/boost-cvs/boost/tools/build/
bjam --version
Jamfile: No such file or directory
Jamfile: No such file or directory
...found 8 targets...

BTW, I am in the boost/tools/build because it did say "Boost.Build root"
but I'm wondering if that's a doc error? When I try from the "Boost
root" directory, I get:

skipping Boost.Python library build due to missing or incorrect

couldn't find Python.h in "/usr/local/include/python2.2"

You can configure the location of your python installation by setting:
PYTHON_ROOT - currently "/usr/local"
PYTHON_VERSION - The 2-part python Major.Minor version number (e.g.
"2.2", NOT "2.2.1") - currently "2.2"

The following are automatically configured from PYTHON_ROOT if not
otherwise set:

PYTHON_LIB_PATH - path to Python library object; currently
"/usr/local/lib/python2.2/config"
PYTHON_INCLUDES - path to Python #include directories; currently
"/usr/local/include/python2.2"

IOW, it seems to build several libraries, but all I wanted was to build
bjam and "install" that.

Thanks for the help, David.
