First step would be to head on over to the Boost.Build list 
<http://boost.org/more/mailing_lists.htm#jamboost> (doing a CC to the 
list now). Once there you can post the new toolset and we can discuss 
it. First likely question will be which version of Boost.Build. Second 
likely question, given that you are posting from Cray Inc :-), is there 
support for compiling bjam also. I'm sure other questions will come up.
