Unfortunately this didn't help. I still get the same error.
Moreover, I found a previous thread
(http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.boost.build/10165/match=seting+boost+enabled+development+environement)
where it was said that the first two lines should not be needed anymore
since ver 1.33. BTW, this probably means that the doc is out-of-date.

Other hints?
